Corrected entry: In the background the flag on a wall has 50 stars. This movie is set long before the USA was comprised of 50 states.

Correction: There are several incarnations of the flag throughout the film, but none with 50 stars. The most common one has 34 stars -- 4 rows of 7 and one row of 6 in the middle. The filmmakers obviously took care to include authentic flags, it is unlikely that they would have let a "50 star" slip through.
