Factual error: When Michelle Williams gets contact lenses, they zoom in on the eye as she's trying to put the contact in. It's obviously a soft contact lens since you plainly see it folding over. They didn't have soft contact lenses back then.

Suggested correction: The first soft contact lenses were launched in the USA in 1971, having already been available in other countries for some time, and were immediately adopted widely. This film starts at the time of the Watergate break in in 1972.

Factual error: At many points, particularly when Nixon has resigned, the soldiers around the White House are using modern M16A2 rifles, which I don't think the US military used until the 1980's.
