The Black Dahlia

Revealing mistake: When Lee is being lifted into the incinerator, he moves his head, despite being dead.

Factual error: When Josh Hartnett's character pulls up the bathroom tile and find the cash, the bills are labeled "Federal Reserve Notes." Federal Reserve Notes didn't come into use until the 1960s. Back at the time of the Black Dahlia murder, Silver Certificates were in use.
