Movie Trivia/Goofs

→ View All
  • Movie Goof (factual errors): "Boobie" is on his front porch watching the trash being picked up, Odessa has alleys and dumpsters for trash pickup, not curbside pickup.
  • Live-action game sequences from the 2003 Permian High School football season are interspersed throughout the film. Director Peter Berg matched the uniforms and on-field jersey numbers for acted sequences so that the live clips would blend. Game sequences were shot on location at Ratliff Stadium in Odessa and the Astrodome in Houston.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): After the State Championship game Don Billingsley's father Charlie approaches him. In the first shot Don has gloves on his hands. There is then a close up and his father then puts his state championship ring on Don's finger and his hands are bare. The shot after that it shows Don with his father again and his gloves are once more.
  • Movie Goof (anachronisms): Toward the beginning of the movie, a Dodge Durango is seen parked on the street in Odessa. This movie is set in 1988; Dodge did not begin making the Durango until 1997.
