Factual error: Alva and Owen go see the movie "One Way Passage", released in October 1932. The movie takes places in August, the year is not stated explicitly, but there's a wall calendar in the dining room at the boarding house (you can see it when Legate leaves, calling himself a fink) for 1934, and at the same time the date shown in the office (when Redford sits at the desk to decide who will get pink slips) is August 14, Friday, which would set the movie in 1931.
This Property Is Condemned (1966)
1 factual error
Directed by: Sydney Pollack
Starring: Robert Redford, Charles Bronson, Natalie Wood, Kate Reid
Continuity mistake: Alva writes the postcard to Willie with the card perfectly aligned to the drawboard in the wider shots, but across the corner in the close-up. (01:40:55)
Owen Legate: Listen, Miss Starr...I've been travelling since six o' clock this morning. Gotta get up early tomorrow and do some work. Now, if you come with the room, if you are included with the two meals, then let's get on with it. Let's not play around.
Alva Starr: What do you think I am?
Owen Legate: What do you think you are? (00:27:50)
Trivia: Kate Reid was only 8 years older than Natalie Wood, who plays her daughter.
