Far from Heaven

Other mistake: When Frank and Cathy talk about his homosexuality he says "I know it's a sickness". The German subtitles read "Schwäche" ("weakness") which is not just a bad but a wrong translation considering the perception of homosexuality in the fifties. (00:29:50)

Other mistake: Raymond mentions his shop 'down on Hawthorn' to Cathy. The German subtitles translate into 'down in Hawthorn', as if Hawthorn were a different town. (00:21:00)

Factual error: In the scene where Julianne Moore realizes her husband will miss supper hour with the family again, she decides to bring his dinner to him at the office. The housekeeper hands her the packaged dinner in a square Tupperware container. It is from the early 1980's, and is the color style persimmon - a deep rust red. Tupperware did not make this container shape, nor color, in 1957-1958 period. (00:22:15)
