The top mistakes in Young Adam http://www.moviemistakes.com/film3622 en Sat, 23 Aug 2008 05:55:18 +0000 38745 The film is set in the 1950s. In the scene where Ewan McGregor and Peter Mullan are waiting for a load of coal (the morning after they discover the body), there is a close-up shot of Ewan McGregor's head and shoulders. In the background is a huge container ship, slightly out of focus. Containers were not introduced to Europe until 1966 and the ship in this film was probably built in the 1980s.
