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."
Celebrity (1998)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Woody Allen
Starring: Kenneth Branagh, Leonardo DiCaprio, Judy Davis, Greg Mottola, Dick Mingalone, Jeff Mazzola, Vladimir Bibic
Tony Gardella: Tom Dale. Big star. He's in New York filming an adaptation of a sequel of a remake.
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.
