“Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron” Goofs List
- Continuity: The apples in Spirit’s pen disappear.
- Factual errors: Esperanza (Spirit’s mother), gives birth to Spirit surrounded by her fellow mares. Wild mares disappear from the herd for a few days and give birth alone, then return to the herd. Esperanza would also have snapped at anyone, mare or stallion, who came close to Spirit for the next week.
- Continuity: When Spirit is about to exit the train car and looks at the camp, the same shot with the mounted officer crossing the path is shown twice.
- Errors in geography: After Spirit has fought the cougar and the herd runs over to meet him, there are trees in the background. There is then a close up of Spirit and Esperanza (his mum) and a shot of the foal. Yet when the camera zooms out to show the whole group, the trees are gone.
- Continuity: After Spirit has fought the cougar and the rest of the herd runs down to meet him, there are trees in the background. The shot then goes to a close-up of the foal and when the camera zooms out to show the whole group, the trees have disappeared.
- Factual errors: Young Spirit is shown lapping water with his tongue. Horses do not drink that way, instead they suck it up with their lips.
- Revealing mistakes: At one point while Spirit is watching Rain and Little Creek from inside the pen, you can see a bottom portion of his mouth pass through a log in the fence and linger there briefly, as if the log wasn’t there
- Continuity: When escaping from the soldiers’ compound, as Little Creek stops the Colonel from shooting Spirit, Spirit’s reins alternate being on his neck and over his head between shots.
- Revealing mistakes: When Spirit first enters the fort, there is a group of soldiers riding their horses in unison. Spirit neighs at them, and one brown horse stops moving and neighs back. The next line of horses behind the brown horse are still walking, but don’t move forward.
- Continuity: According to the progressing seasons throughout the movie, the two gray colts attacked by the cougar in the beginning of the movie do not age as they should have done. This is evident as Spirit and Rain return to the herd together, and are greeted by the same two gray colts who remain weanling’s as opposed to yearlings.
- Continuity: When the colonel is about to shoot Spirit, he cocks the hammer on his Remington revolver but when Little Creek runs into him, the hammer is uncocked.
- Factual errors: There are over fifteen horses in Spirit’s herd. In real life, there would be much fewer mares and foals because of overgrazing and bachelor stallions would steal mares. Also, larger herds make for larger targets.
- Factual errors: Spirit runs in front of the herd when they all run together. Spirit, the lead stallion, should be at the back making the stragglers keep up and to be protection when the herd is fleeing from predators.
- Factual errors: When the cougar is about to attack the two foals, they are far away from the watchful eyes of the mare. Foals that young would be kept close to the mother’s side and would be prevented from leaving the safety of the herd.
- Factual errors: Before the foals are about to be attacked by the cougar, Spirit is racing with an eagle. Stallions would never leave their precious herd unguarded for as long as Spirit did, as it would leave the herd vulnerable for cougar attacks (which almost happened) and bachelor stallions would seize the opportunity to snatch a mare for themselves.
- Factual errors: The Lakota camp had a pen for their horses. Lakota would not have had pens, their horses would’ve run in a heard that was attended to by the teens of the tribe.
- Continuity: When Little Creek arrives to put Spirit into the pen, the pen has nine parts. Later in another scene the pen has twelve or thirteen parts.
