East of Eden (1955)

Factual error: The opening scenes in 1918 Monterey show a US flag with 50 stars, and clothes inappropriate for the period.

Suggested correction: The flag shown has 48-stars. Even though I verified it by watching the scene, I know it would be impossible to have 50-stars since there were only 48 US States in 1955. And nothing about the clothing seems "inappropriate."
