Factual error: In the beginning of the movie during the burial scene, it looks like a modern community in the background.
Suggested correction: You don't see a "modern" community in the background. You see a few houses, but nothing to indicate anything that it's not part of that time period.
Factual error: The Patriarch of Jerusalem was (and is) not addressed as 'Your Eminence', which is reserved for Cardinals, but as 'Your Beatitude'.
Hospitaler: I put no stock in religion. By the word "religion" I have seen the lunacy of fanatics of every denomination be called the 'Will of God.' Holiness is in right action, and courage on behalf of those who cannot defend themselves, and goodness. What God desires is here [points to head], and here [points to heart], and by what you decide to do every day, you will be a good man. Or not.
Trivia: When the Christians fire their first volley at the Muslims, one of the guys screams a Wilhelm as he falls.
Question: It seems like a glaring factual error that Balian is able to read and write, given that he was raised as a peasant in the Middle Ages. Did I miss some mention as to how he became literate?
