Continuity: The movie opens with young Archy Hamilton (Mark Lee) running a 100-yard practice sprint at dawn, with his uncle (Bill Kerr) keeping time with a stopwatch. After Archy finishes the race, his uncle shows him the watch and Archy's time is just under 10 seconds (9.58 seconds). If one times Archy's sprint, however, it actually consumes about 15 seconds of screen time. See more »
