Troy

The Greeks build a wooden horse and leave it on the beach of Troy, all while pretending to sail away. The Trojans take the Horse (thinking it to be an offering to the gods) into the city. However it was filled with Greecian warriors, which attack the city come night, burning the entire city down and leaving no Trojans alive. Helen escapes through a secret tunnel with Hector's wife, baby, and other Trojans. The king of Troy is killed by Agamemnon (a spear through the stomach)and Achilles was shot with arrows in 5 different places, by Paris who escapes with Briesis through the tunnel.

Troy mistake picture

Visible crew/equipment: As Achilles' ship nears the Trojan shores, Agamemnon snidely asks, "What's the fool doing? He's going to take the beach of Troy with fifty men?" At the start of the next shot, as the camera begins to pan down, on the far right, just beside a person's (who is dressed in blue) head is a metal bullhorn (ie. used to give instructions to cast/crew, and which definitely doesn't belong in this time period). (00:36:35)
