Other mistake: During the dinner scene we see Finn pour Newgate a drink. Newgate then goes to drink from it when Eliza kicks him so he spills it. However due to the width of the table this should be impossible.

Directed by: Brad Anderson
Starring: Brendan Gleeson, David Thewlis, Kate Beckinsale, Jim Sturgess
Factual error: Newgate makes a reference to Mickey Finn's name being the same as that of a Chicago bartender who used to drug his patrons with knockout drops. However, the film is set in 1899, but the real Mickey Finn wasn't caught until 1903.
Edward Newgate: You're mad!
Silas Lamb: We're all mad Dr. Newgate. Some are simply not mad enough to admit it.
