Goofs

The deflated tires are fully inflated when the truck leaves the railroad tracks.

On the rigged punchboard, none of the payoff positions that Curley memorizes coincide with his subsequent wins on the device.

When Mordecai steals the red convertible and drives away he was still wearing his preacher's outfit. After crashing the car for the last time he was wearing a shirt, striped tie and jacket. He had no time to change outfits while driving.

The train that runs the truck off the tracks is the same one that Mordecai is thrown from in the beginning and the one he boards at the end.

In the car chase through town after hitting the watermelon trailer, Mordecai and Curley are being accosted by townspeople in the alley. Mordecai has his hat knocked off revealing dark hair with only the sides of his hair still gray.

In the very last scene when the train goes by, the locomotive and caboose are Union Pacific equipment re-lettered L&N (Louisville and Nashville RR) so the scene must have been filmed in southern California.

At the end of the film, Mordecai supposedly boards the train. There is no way due to his age that he could get himself and his heavy suitcase on a train moving that fast.

As Curley escapes from the jail, Mordecai cheers him on from his cell, pulling on the iron bars. But one of the "iron" bars moves like it's rubber.

Curly pushes a bookcase down upon the sheriff, knocking him out cold. When the bookcase is removed from on top of him, there is a book, opened, and laying on top of his hat on his head. Even though the bookcase and books come down with enough force to knock him unconscious, when the book is removed from on top of his hat and head, his hat is NOT crumbled or crushed.

When Curley complains to Jarvis Bates about having to wait so long for Mordecai's return, his mouth isn't moving.

Near the end of the movie, when Curly pushes down on the dynamite plunger, it's heard spinning before he pushes it.

Mordecai is shouting a line of dialogue in total silence, but we hear Curley announce he's giving up, after the two crash into Packard's car.

When the sheriff and deputy are giving chase to the stolen car, the deputy raises his gun and fires it into the air while it is next to the sheriff's head. The sheriff cups his hands over his ears and turns to give the deputy a dirty look. However, the gunshot sound occurs after the sheriff has covered his ears.

Stagehand seen approaching in car window, as Mordecai gives the Bible tract to Bonnie Lee.

Even though the action takes place in the south, many of the actors have a New England accent.
