Eli (Denzel Washington) Longbow and Arrows from The Book of Eli
This longbow and arrows were used by the character "Eli," portrayed by actor Denzel Washington, in the 2010 motion picture, "The Book of Eli." The prop longbow is constructed of multiple layers of long flat wood bound together with industrial tape. It is heavily distressed and weathered to look like a post-apocalyptic world weapon. Comes complete with five bamboo arrows with various feathered tails, extra arrow tips (distress and taped), and extra bow strings.
Mr. Washington is seen carrying or using this prop weapon throughout much of the film. From the beginning of the movie when he is walking through the wasteland with the shotgun sticking out of his backpack, to the various action sequences, the shotgun is never too far from his grasp. At the end of the film, Solara (Mila Kunis) is seen carrying off with the weapon. It is also seen in most promotional images for the film.
The prop weapon is seen used throughout the film, by both Eli and Solara (Mila Kunis). In the opening shot of film, Eli shoots and kills a cat with the bow and arrow in a forest. He later uses the weapon to save Solara from her attackers. Towards the end of the film, Solara uses one of the bow strings to strangle the driver of her truck in order to escape and help Eli after he's been shot. "The Book of Eli" follows the story of Eli, a nomad in a post-apocalyptic world, who is told by a voice to deliver a mysterious book to a safe location on the West Coast of the United States.
The longbow and arrows are in good screen used condition with evidence of distress from its extensive use on the film. Accompanied by a letter of authenticity.
