Via Popehat, Yahoo!’s list of the Ten Most Historically Inaccurate Movies. Popehat notes that Mel Gibson is a big player in three of the ten.
There are a lot more to add to the list, I think — pick your favorite Zorro movie, for example. Or think of the fog at the airport in “Casablanca.” Especially if one starts picking historical nits in pictures that don’t pretend to portray historical events, the list grows quickly. Has anyone vetted the years of the song in the soundtrack for “Forrest Gump?”
This list at Cracked.com hangs 11 inaccurate films. It’s snarkier and much more profane, probably not safe for work or school. There is a lot of overlap.
Which movies have been left off the lists, other than all of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre movies?
