Steamboy

Corrected entry: Robert Stephenson died in 1859, roughly a decade before the film's main story.

Correction: This film is a highly fictionalized film about a young inventor who encounters implausible steam-armies and battles in a flying castle. It is not supposed to be factually accurate.

Factual error: Tower Bridge is destroyed by the steam castle. The movie takes place in 1866 and Tower Bridge was not built until 1894.
