![The Butler picture](/images/titles/9000-9999/9875_sm.jpg)
Factual error: A concrete barrier is shown around the White House in the 1960's. This was not put into place until the 1980's.
![Executive Action picture](/images/titles/0-999/435_sm.jpg)
Factual error: The kid is wearing a Texas Rangers baseball cap. The Rangers didn't come to Texas until 1972.
![Valkyrie picture](/images/titles/7000-7999/7079_sm.jpg)
Factual error: Approximately three quarters of the way in to the film, there is a close up of a German soldier handing an officer a file of documents. The helmet that the soldier is wearing is a post war 1960s version. This can be determined by the lack of an air vent and rivet on the side of the helmet.
![The Battle of the River Plate picture](/images/titles/1000-1999/1550_sm.jpg)
Continuity mistake: In the final shot, just as the credits are rolling, the British warships are sailing away with the sun setting behind them. In an earlier scene the radio commentator says that the sun is setting and a shot of the sun touching the surface of the sea is shown.
![Seven Years in Tibet picture](/images/titles/2000-2999/2487_sm.jpg)
Visible crew/equipment: When Brad Pitt is taken prisoner by the English, he tries to escape and is thrown in prison. As the camera turns back to the door, the shadow of a microphone is visible left to the door.
![Russian Ark picture](/images/titles/4000-4999/4377_sm.jpg)
Factual error: One of the members of the orchestra is reading off sheet music held together by sticky tape, which is an anachronism.
![Zero Dark Thirty picture](/images/titles/9000-9999/9509_sm.jpg)
Factual error: When the agent searches for Abu Ahmed in Peshawar, Pakistan, in one scene he gets out of his car, and a shop named Bhatia sons appear in the background, a company based in Delhi, India. In the next scene he is walking down a market, where a sign board of Jaggi sweets, (existing in Punjab, India) is seen, with words written in Hindi (only to be found in India).
![Rapa Nui picture](/images/titles/3000-3999/3463_sm.jpg)
Revealing mistake: While Noro, a member of a shoeless society, is doing his uphill training you get a glimpse of his shoes, in spite of all efforts to hide his feet in the grass. (00:53:30)
![Rough Riders picture](/images/titles/5000-5999/5884_sm.jpg)
Factual error: Secretary of State John Hay is depicted issuing the order to "initiate hostilities" against Spain. Unfortunately, at the time we actually went to war with Spain, John Hay was not the Secretary of State. That position was held by William. R. Day. Hay did not become SofS until September of 1898, after most hostilities had ended.
![The Libertine picture](/images/titles/6000-6999/6240_sm.jpg)
Factual error: In the scene towards the end, where Johnny Depp is making his speech in the House of Lords, he refers to 'due process of law', but uses the American pronunciation of the word 'process' (prah-sess) whereas the English would say 'proe-sess'.
![Marco Polo picture](/images/titles/5000-5999/5970_sm.jpg)
Factual error: Many palace scenes in the mini-series are set in the Forbidden City. This is incorrect, as the Forbidden City was built under the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and not completed until about 1420, almost 100 years after Marco Polo's death.
![A Night to Remember picture](/images/titles/1000-1999/1569_sm.jpg)
Factual error: When the ship is being launched a champagne bottle is smashed against the hull. Harland & Wolff, like many shipbuilders, did not smash champagne bottles against the hull.
![The Greatest Game Ever Played picture](/images/titles/6000-6999/6174_sm.jpg)
Factual error: In an early scene, a character suggests that a man might be awarded an OBE honor if he wins the 1913 US Open. The OBE wasn't established until 1917.
![The Unbearable Lightness of Being picture](/images/titles/1000-1999/1343_sm.jpg)
Continuity mistake: The actress loads her 35mm Praktica camera with Kodak film. That's not really strange, but the film is situated in 1968 around the invasion of the Russians in Prague. The film cassette is clearly visible as having DX coding on one side for setting the film speed automatically. This feature had yet to be invented in 1968, because it was released in the early 80's.
![Geronimo picture](/images/titles/5000-5999/5766_sm.jpg)
Continuity mistake: The book Geronimo steals from the wagon train is red. When he gives it to his wife it is black.
![Jesus Christ Superstar picture](/images/titles/4000-4999/4234_sm.jpg)
Continuity mistake: During entire scene with dancing king Herod and his men, shadows on the floor are at different angles from one shot to another. (01:16:15 - 01:19:30)
![The Passion of Joan of Arc picture](/images/titles/5000-5999/5496_sm.jpg)
Factual error: The movie is supposed to be in the 15th century. In a scene we see a priest, wearing a Jesuit robe. But the Jesuit order was founded in the 16th century. So it's impossible that a priest wearing a Jesuit robe appears there.
![Ulysses picture](/images/titles/3000-3999/3787_sm.jpg)
Factual error: In order to make Polyphem drunk, Ulysses and his men produce 'wine' by treading on grapes. Only thing is: without fermenting the stuff for a few months, all you get is grape juice, which is not even remotely intoxicating.
![Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love picture](/images/titles/3000-3999/3859_sm.jpg)
Continuity mistake: Upset with her husband's growing obsession with his mistress Maya, Tara the Queen attempts to commit suicide by slicing her wrists while bathing. She makes deep cuts in both wrists. Maya rescues Tara the Queen when she enters the Queen's chambers. Two scenes later, Tara the Queen attends the execution of Maya's lover. Magically, Tara's arms are unbandaged and unscarred. The execution took place only days after her attempted suicide.
![Anne of the Thousand Days picture](/images/titles/5000-5999/5865_sm.jpg)
Other mistake: As Anne is about to be executed for adultery she begins recalling the important events of her life since meeting Henry VIII. She counts each of the wooden stakes numbered "100 Days" and recalls various events involving she and Henry. There should be 10 to account for the 1000 days but there are only nine. (02:13:00)
