Production Mistakes I think they Made on the Movie
southendmd:
Regarding the credits listing so-called "extras", I believe early versions of the script had speaking scenes for some of them; specifically the waitress in Signal and the assailants. I don't know the rules about their inclusion in credits if their scenes eventually get cut.
Interestingly, some early sources used to list the cast including Valerie Planche, as if she were some major star; when in actuality, the actors were listed in order of appearance (or non-appearance as the case may be).
Tatoo girl really does stand out. Very odd choice of casting.

Jack and Ennis didn't go up the mountain until the following morning. Joe Aguirre said, "Tomorrow mornin' we'll truck you up to the jump-off." After they left Aguirre's trailer, Jack and Ennis walked over to the bar in Signal and spent some time there. But they had lots of time to kill until the next morning. While it's not shown in the film, it's conceivable that Jack (either with or without Ennis) took the truck for a drive -- maybe to get something to eat or to see if there was anything going on in Signal -- and backed it into the parking space when he returned.

As I recall when Jack and Ennis are trying to get Jack's truck started it is parked not in the parking lot of Aguirre's trailer, but in front of an adjacent garage. I think that we can assume that Aguirre would not wish for Jack's beat up truck to be parked in his lot next to the other junk rusting truck that was already there, he probably had Jack park the truck in a garage and charge him rent.

not enough space in the packs carried by the mules to haul up enough food for those dogs and some feed for the horses too ! And where did Ennis keep the dog food up in the pastures? I never saw them feed the dogs. I'm just worrying about the dogs, that is all ???
