Corrected entry: Piper asks Mahree if she wants to see Freaky Friday, despite the story taking place in 1977. This means the 1976 film Freaky Friday would've been in theaters for a year.
The Color of Friendship (2000)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Kevin Hooks
Starring: Carl Lumbly, Lindsey Haun, Shadia Simmons, Penny Johnson
Genres: Drama
Factual error: In the final scene when Mahree returns to the farm, the car arriving at the farmhouse has the newer, yellow number plates. During the 1970s, South African vehicle number plates were white text on a black background. Transvaal province was the first to use the new black on yellow plates in 1978.

Correction: What is the mistake? There are lots of theaters that don't run first run movies, and show them for a discounted ticket price. And there have been these types of theaters since the 70s. If the movie took place in 1975 and the movie they want to see wasn't produced till '76, there's a problem, but not the other way around.
