Braveheart
When the epic war movie Braveheart was released in 1991, it opened to critical acclaim. The film was nominated for 10 Oscars (and won five Oscars for best picture, best director, best cinematography, best effects, sound effects editing and best makeup) and grossed $210.4 million in the box offices. Impressive, right?

The main characters, including Mel Gibson, were praised for their performances, and the movie seemed authentic for its time. Since the movie was set in Scotland in 1280, it might have seemed perfectly normal that the Scottish knight and his band of men were rocking kilts. Still, while kilts are a traditional dress in Scotland, they weren’t a thing yet in the 1200s and actually became popular much later.
