Notes
Goofs:
Continuity: Paden's horse changes as they ride away from Turley with the posse in pursuit. At first it has a white star on its forehead, but later it has a white stripe the length of its nose. (more)

Trivia:
In the scene where Augie tries to jump on Kevin Costner's character Jake's horse and falls to the ground, the horse is wearing Jake's hat. This was Costner's idea just before the cameras rolled to keep with his character's goofy nature. Kasdan loved the idea and it stayed in the film. (more)

Filming Locations:
