The Man's neck can be seen pulsing with life after the Boy awakes and discovers the Man is dead.
When the Man is walking to the ocean pier through the amusement park where his leg gets shot by an arrow, the entrance sign to the park clearly says "Conneaut LAKE Park.
" By the time the Man dies, his skin has become an ashen gray.
When the Boy lifts the blanket to kiss him goodbye in the final scene, his skin is now a normal flesh tone.
Midway through the movie the Man finds an unopened Coca-Cola can in a machine.
When it falls out it has a dented top.
When they drink from the can, there is no dent.
When the Man dies he is covered by the gray blanket and has something with a buckle beneath his head.
When the Boy comes to say his last goodbyes, the Man is covered by the colored blanket and his head is on sand.
It would appear that either the Boy or the Veteran has removed the gray blanket from on top of the Man and wrapped the colored one (which was underneath him) around him.
In the beginning, the Man is shown to only have two bullets in his revolver.
But when we see the front the revolver after he cocked the hammer and pointed the gun at the urinating gangster we see two rounds in the cylinder.
The cylinder will rotate again if the hammer is pulled back, so when he fired seconds later the hammer would have hit an empty chamber.
