Revolutionary Road

Revealing mistake: The magazines in the Wheelers' living room, and Frank's Berlitz guidebook, are dog-eared and browned. They're probably from 1955, but they look like they're 50 or 60 years old.

Factual error: The longneck beer bottles in the 1955 beach scene are incorrect. Longnecks are faster to open, so they were designed for and used in bars. Retail beer bottles (that you would see at the beach) before 1980 or so were shorter so they could fit better in home fridge shelves.
