Bedazzled
Some trivia about the Faustian film "Bedazzled" (which came out in the year 2000
and stars Elizabeth Hurley and Brendan Frazier) regarding Fermat's Theorem (from moviemistakes.com):
"This is not a mistake but something clever.
When the Devil was a schoolteacher, the first equation on the board was
Fermat's Last Theorem
(X n + Y n = Z n for n > 2).
It was proven in 1993 that there is no integer solution to this equation;
exactly the kind of problem the Devil would give to an algebra class,
but not really expected in your standard Hollywood film."
Annapolis
In the movie Annapolis, plebes doing a navigation calculation report an answer
"40 degrees, 80 minutes." Well then, that makes me 5 feet 14 inches tall and my age
is 39 years 251 months!
