Moonrise Kingdom

Factual error: The VW Bug that the belfry falls on is a later model than 1965 when the movie is set. The larger tail light with yellow on the lens seen on the VW in the movie didn't come along until 1968. The one in the movie may even be of early 70's vintage.

Factual error: The police station wagon is a '68 Plymouth. The movie is set in 1965.

Factual error: Suzy's bra is not typical of a young girl in 1965. Training bras in 1965, often manufactured by Teenform or Teencharm, were much more substantial and modest.

Continuity mistake: Suzy flashes white panties while getting into the tent, but is wearing red check panties later.
