Corrected entry: Barrow, Alaska is north of the Arctic Circle. As such, at the time of the year (October) that the movie is set in, there would be no daylight (it would be nighttime 24/7). Yet there are many scenes that take place in the daylight.
Big Miracle (2012)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Ken Kwapis
Starring: Drew Barrymore, John Krasinski, Ahmaogak Sweeney, Ishmael Angalook Hope, John Chase, John Pingayak
Factual error: In one scene Drew Barrymore stands in from of a political world map, showing the political borders as of today. You can see the successor countries of the Soviet Union in that map. But the plot plays back in 1988, with the Soviet Union still alive.
Adam Carlson: I think Barrow might have one great story left in her.

Correction: Barrow is not dark 24/7 in October. That occurs in December. Even at the end of October, Barrow gets 6 hours of daylight.
