Trivia Temperatures soared to over one hundred degrees on almost every day throughout the shooting of this movie. Moreover, thirty mile-per-hour windstorms were a common occurrence in the afternoons. As a direct result of the latter, crew members were often forced to wear goggles and face masks in order to protect themselves from the harsh elements. See more »
Goofs The gun Frank takes from Jesse's truck is an old-fashioned six shooter, yet he fires off at least 20 rounds without reloading during the shootout at the gas station. See more »
