Production Mistakes I think they Made on the Movie

Trying to turn hot 26-year-olds into middle-aged men could not have been easy (though probably easier than the other way around would be ;D). But between the makeup and Jake and Heath's capturing older mannerisms, I can go with it.

You know they filmed the movie in reverse the big sideburn shots were done first I'm told they they cut them off for the earlier shots.  What disappearing stick is everyone talking about?

Jack's been chopping firewood when Joe Aquirre rides up.  He leaves a small log on the tree trunk that he was going to chop.   When Aquirre leaves the small log is gone.   (I think one of the coyotes with the balls the size of apples carted it off somewhere when nobody was lookiing...)

peace ;)

I remember back in the early days on the yahoo movie board there was a discussion about weather of not Jack had been infected with HIV in Mexico because of his makeup.

RossInIllinois:
OMG I never noticed that log before thats a bad mistake. That falls in the hands of the script supervisor and Ang Lee.  ;)

I could buy "asphyxiate" as Jack trying to show off, but "commuting" never did sound quite right to me for country-raised kid in 1963.

I've seen the church steeple phenomenon described as "moving" rather than "disappearing," but that's definitely a camera-angle thing.

I never noticed the stick of firewood.  :-\
