Goof in the very first shot


The first shot is a close-up of someone bending a bow with a lot of force and looping the string over the tip. Then the same is repeated a second time putting the other end of the string on the other tip. But wait! Anyone who's strung a bow knows that looping the first end doesn't require any force at all; only the second one requires bending the bow.

Also, neither main character seemed to know much about shooting arrows or bowing a stringed instrument either, but actors lacking specialized physical skills is understandable. But messing up the opening close=up on the item the movie is named after seemed disrespectful of the story.
