Factual error: At the art exhibition, Eleanor wears a plastic name badge which looks rather modern for this period. (00:36:15)
Far from Heaven (2002)
Directed by: Todd Haynes
Starring: Dennis Quaid, Julianne Moore, Patricia Clarkson, Dennis Haysbert
Factual error: In the scene where Julianne Moore realizes her husband will miss supper hour with the family again, she decides to bring his dinner to him at the office. The housekeeper hands her the packaged dinner in a square Tupperware container. It is from the early 1980's, and is the color style persimmon - a deep rust red. Tupperware did not make this container shape, nor color, in 1957-1958 period. (00:22:15)
Continuity mistake: During Frank's appointment with Dr. Bowman there's a sculpture with an arrow on the desk in all shots on the doctor, but the sculpture isn't there when we see Frank. (00:29:15)
Trivia: Because he was filming the first season of "24" at the same time, Dennis Haysbert was constantly shuttling back and forth between Los Angeles and the East Coast.
Raymond: Here is to being the only one.
Frank Whitaker: I know it's wrong because it makes me feel despicable.
Eleanor Fine: Call me old fashioned, I just like all the men I'm around to be all men.
