Factual error: When Mary and the children go to the bank the long shot of the bank shows a statue that was not erected until 1994.
Mary Poppins Returns (2018)
1 factual error
Directed by: Rob Marshall
Starring: Meryl Streep, Colin Firth, Emily Blunt, Emily Mortimer
Other mistake: As established in the original and this film, when the Admiral fires his cannon, everything in the house falls off walls and mantles, and everything needs to be caught to prevent them from being damaged. However, when he fires his cannon as Mary Poppins and the children are going out to have the bowl repaired, Michael has already left for work, Jane and Ellen are standing outside, and Mary, the children, are getting onto Jack's bike - leaving no-one in the house to catch the falling objects which would therefore all be smashed or damaged.
Jack: It's a good thing you've come along when you did, Mary Poppins.
Question: Colin Firth and Dick Van Dyke sit in a carved banker's chair with dragon scrolls. I have an exact same chair obviously made by the same person. My own chair is old and an antique, though I know nothing about it. I would like to learn more about my chair and therefore ask if anyone knows anything about the chair used in the film?
