Unexcusable Movie Mistakes That Somehow Made the Final Cut

The Green Mile

The most important scene of The Green Mile involves the electric chair. John Coffey was finally sentenced to death, and Paul Edgecomb had to heartbreakingly handle the execution. This scene might have been easier to watch if it were true to the time period, because the electric chair wasn't produced until 1940. This movie was set in 1935.
