	<title>Mistake #1</title>
	<mistake_id>150638</mistake_id>
      <description>After Langdon saves the last of the Preferati by diving into the fountain, he heads off to St. Angelo with dry clothes. Since it is only ten or fifteen minutes later, the clothes should be soaked.</description>

      <description>Contrary to what the movie states, priests can be elected Pope - they are simply elevated to the rank of Bishop before taking the office.</description>

	<title>Mistake #3</title>
	<mistake_id>150637</mistake_id>
      <description>In the scene where Vetra is taken to examine the body of the deceased pope, the corpse is exposed after the marble slab and the lid of the casket is removed. In reality, papal funerary protocol requires the body to be triple-sealed. It is first placed in a coffin of cypress wood (to symbolise humility), and is then hermetically sealed in a zinc coffin to slow down decomposition. Finally, the zinc coffin is then placed inside of an oak coffin before being interred beneath the marble slab.</description>

	<title>Mistake #4</title>
	<mistake_id>149369</mistake_id>
      <description>When Langdon first has an audience with the Camerlengo, you can quite easily see foundation on the Camerlengo's collar. This skin coloured compact is the base of any film makeup and often rubs off onto white collars if not checked.</description>

	<title>Mistake #5</title>
	<mistake_id>149563</mistake_id>
      <description>The Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi, where the fourth cardinal is taken to be executed, is nowhere near as deep as it's depicted in the film. In reality it's only little more than a foot deep.</description>
