5. The Aviator
Titanic wasn’t the only film where Leonardo’s character swayed a little too far from the truth. Take, for instance, a scene in the movie which is set in 1928. The psychotic Howard Hughes (DiCaprio) is seen to order 10 chocolate chip cookies. But did you know that the inventor of this cookie, Ruth Graves Wakefield, didn’t invent this tasty treat until the 1930s?
And… that’s about it. Martin Scorsese actually did a pretty great job sticking to facts as much as possible. Historians and movie-goers have repeatedly praised Scorsese for his almost-immaculate representation of what really happened to Hughes.
