#11: The Book of Eli (2010)
In The Book of Eli, Denzel Washington’s character navigates a post-apocalyptic world, protecting a precious Braille Bible believed to hold the key to humanity’s salvation. However, a glaring historical inaccuracy surfaces: The film presents the Braille Bible as a single volume when, in reality, due to the sheer volume of text, it would span numerous volumes.
This oversight detracts from the film’s realism, highlighting a common misconception about the practicalities of producing Braille literature. Despite this flaw, Washington’s compelling performance and the film’s gripping narrative continue to captivate audiences, offering thought-provoking insights into faith, survival, and redemption.
