Trivia: Spoiler! There is an extra scene at the end after the credits roll with Amenza paying tribute saying the names of the fallen Dahomey warriors one by one.
The Woman King (2022)
1 trivia entry
Directed by: Gina Prince-Bythewood
Starring: Viola Davis, John Boyega, Hero Fiennes Tiffin
Factual error: One of the warriors tells a trainee they move like a sloth, more than once. Sloths are only found in the "new world", not native to Africa.
Question: When the other tribe comes in to get their tribute, the camera is on the horses' riders and pans to the right and around and the top of a vehicle of some sort is visible driving behind the standing soldiers. I have rerun this scene several time and looks like the top of a gas or electric vehicle, not a wagon. Does anyone else see this?
Answer: It took me all this time (January 22, 2024) to catch it, but that's what brought me here! Great catch! I told my grandson watching with me that it looked like a motorized wheelchair!
