The Professionals (1966)
1 deliberate mistake
Directed by: Richard Brooks
Starring: Burt Lancaster, Lee Marvin, Robert Ryan, Woody Strode
Factual error: In the scene where Lee Marvin states that Burt Lancaster loves explosions, Burt Lancaster makes a remark about the big bang theory. He says: the whole universe started with a big explosion. The film is set in 1917 which is 10 years before Georges Lemaître launched the big bang theory.
