The top mistakes in Revolutionary Road http://www.moviemistakes.com/film7742 en Sat, 21 Nov 2009 06:55:38 +0000 145183 There is a modern drop ceiling in the 1955 hospital waiting room where Frank is waiting after April's miscarriage. 145293 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. 145771 Kate is wearing a watch with a Speidel Twist-O-Flex watch band. These bands were introduced in 1959. 145874 The globe that April shows to the children is post-1992, when Czechoslovakia is divided into the Czech Republic and Slovakia. 145188 The wall phone in Frank and April's 1955 kitchen is an old rotary phone, but actually post 1980. It has a modern flat cord and a modern wire plug. Phones cords in 1955 were round and permanently attached to the handset with no square plug.
