Dirt Roads In Movies. Pet Peeve.( Among Others.)
Just watch Russel Crowe in his gladiator movie. Typical mistake, last scene is his son running down a dirt track.
Now, back then, a cart or chariot would have two horses pulling ( Mostly.)and the track center would have been chewed up with hoses hooves not a nice long grass lawn ! I lived near Newmarket in the UK a long time ago and there where tracks, but no grass going to or from the stalls and downs. Also my milkman when I was 6y/o had a one horse drawn milk float. The dairy was all dirt....no grass ! Now I know this is trivial, but it bugs me no end that they spend millions on effects and don't get the scenery right. Guess it's my Asperger's. .

Irritates me too. The Revenant had the river currents all screwed up and totally misplaced geography.

I love hearing tires screech in a good B-movie dirt road car chase...

I feel the same way about seeing someone shoot 14 times from a 1911A1.
