Oklahoma!

Laurie greets the female dancers on the porch in one shot and in the next shot they are shown just getting out of their buggies and carriages.

There are no mountains visible near Catoosa.

During the auction, when Curly makes the highest bid, Aunt Eller bangs the gavel SO hard that it breaks, to much laughter.

it is fully intact in the next shot.

When Will Parker is giving Ado Annie the "Oklahoma Hello," you can see a camera shadow as it pushes in on their kiss.

In the beginning of the song "Oklahoma!" there's what appear to be a camera and camera operator shadow on Curly and Laurey as they sing "Brand New State.

" When Laurie walks into her house when the crowd arrives before going to the Skidmore party, she hears the two girls talking about Curley.

One girl's hair is in a long ponytail.

The camera pans around the room, and when it goes back to Laurie and the two girls, the girl's hair is no longer in a ponytail.

When Laurey is singing "Many a New Day" in the bedroom, she puts her arms above her head.

When she turns she is still singing but her mouth doesn't move.

In the early scenes at Aunt Eller's, the corn disappears and reappears between shots.

At the train station, Will Parker gets off the train and gives Aunt Eller a white box of something.

Aunt Eller sits down on a bench and the camera shows her from the back, looking at Will.

He says something like "let me show you guys something", to his other cowboy friends and starts to walk toward them.

Aunt Eller puts the white box on the bench to her left and starts to stand up.

In the shot immediately following, now showing the front of Aunt Eller, she puts the white box to her left and stands up again in the exact same way she did before.

When Jud wakes Laurey from her dream sequence, to tell her it's time to go to the party, night has fallen and it's dark.

She goes inside to change.

In the next scene, they're heading off to the party with everyone else, in broad daylight.

In the final "Oklahoma!" scene, everyone is gathered round outside Aunt Eller's house,with Curley and Laurie singing.

Will Parker and Ado Annie slip in at the back but then they suddenly disappear and nobody notices.

When the words "The End" appear a square section of the sky/clouds directly behind "The" suddenly moves upward.

I remember liking Oklahoma more. However, watching this movie as an adult with my wife and kids was a different experience.

I have some trouble adapting to stage musicals when I see them on the stage. There's something about the fact that the audience is there for pure — absolutely pure — entertainment in the form of singing and dancing, and somehow need a narrative to make it palatable.

There are elements in Oklahoma that I think could have turned me off if I saw it for the first time today, because I do tend to be a bit more critical of film now. The movie splits time between two different stories that don't intersect enough to warrant them both being in the same film.

Oklahoma at the turn of the century, boys meet girls, it's not straightforward, love is a funny old thing, oh and a very unstable farmhand is seething to the point of explosion.It's vastly unfair to say that Oklahoma!

Rodgers and Hammerstein, Gordon MacRae and Shirley Jones. This was a dream combination for me, the greatest teaming in film musical history.

I do not think Fred Zinnemann was the right person to direct this film. To relax I revisited this musical and instead of the distant memory of a very quaint and unrealistic vision of the Mid-West of America I found a mess of coherence in the direction and very patchy acting.

The soundtrack to this movie(as with other Rogers and Hammerstein movies) is FANTASTIC, the story and the characters are brilliant too.

I was introduced to Oklahoma! when the drama club at college put it on.

Just saw it again - only fault its dropping a couple of songs from the original show. I'd have also been inclined to consider casting Elvis in the lead.
