Loving. 2016, based on 1967 U.S. Supreme Court decision Loving v. Virginia. Starring Ruth Negga, Joel Edgerton, Marton Csokas, Nick Kroll and Michael Shannon. Anachronisms: 1. At the beginning of the movie, when the two cars are racing, one of the drivers is stepping on a brake pedal with a disc brake emblem. Disc brakes were not mass produced until the mid 60s. 2. The female reporter who is interviewing Mildred in their house is recording her audio on a Nagra 4.2 tape recorder. Tha Nagra 4.2 was introduced in 1971, while the scene takes place in the mid-sixties. 3. When the Lovings are walking with their lawyer to the Caroline County courthouse in Bowling Green in January 1959 to enter their guilty plea, they walk in front of the Bowling Green Post Office. The sign on the Post Office building includes the Bowling Green zip code (22427). Zip codes were not introduced until 1963. 4. There's a scene where Mildred Loving is shown washing dishes at home, and the dinnerware appears to be made of Corelle. This brand of dinnerware was not introduced until 1970, and the scene in question would have been mid to late Sixties. Movie Network, July 3, 2017, with Dr. Connie Luther.
