Corrected entry: Judy Davis, who portrays an English teacher, says Chaucer wrote "Beowulf," but authorship of Beowulf is unknown. Chaucer, of course, wrote "The Canterbury Tales."

Directed by: Woody Allen
Starring: Kenneth Branagh, Leonardo DiCaprio, Judy Davis, Greg Mottola, Dick Mingalone, Jeff Mazzola, Vladimir Bibic
Dee Bartholomew: I ran into our Tony Gardello at the Cafe Carlyle. He had a blissed-out look like he had died and gone to heaven. How did you manage to put that smile on his face?
Robin Simon: Using my head.
Correction: This is obviously a scripted part of the film and is therefore not a mistake. Beowulf was written four hundred years before Chaucer was born and Woody Allen knows that. He put the line in to show Davis's character as prone to making dumb mistakes.
