Anachronism: 

The beginning of the film shows Hook & Ladder 8 in 1904 having a single door on the front (like in modern day), but back then, Ladder 8 was a double-door station. The building's width was reduced by about half in 1913 upon the widening of Varick St. to become the station that it is today.

Wicked Little Letters. 2023 (British), Starring 



Crave, November 16, 2024, with Dr. Connie Luther. Soundtrack: "



Anachronisms: 

Edith buys an orange 2d stamp which she attaches to a letter she then posts. Earlier in the film there are close-up shots of letters with single 1d red stamps attached. The one-penny rate for letters ended in 1918.

There are references to Rose's daughter been taken off her by the CPS; a modern organisation that begun in the 1980s.

The police uniforms have cap badges and buttons with the "St Edwards Crown" on it, used from 1953-2023, rather than the "Tudor Crown" in use from 1902-1952, which would be correct for 1920s England.

The UK's first female Asian police officer did not serve until the 1970s.

The Judge presiding over the case is black. The first black Judge in England and Wales was not appointed until 1962. As in the movie, the trial of Rose Gooding happened in 1921. The judge in the movie, Maccleston, is played by the Nigerian actor Cyril Nri. In real life, there weren't black magistrates in UK at those time. The first black magistrate in UK was the Jamaica-born Eric Irons, who served from 1962 until 1991, when he retired (he died on 2007).

Rose and Nancy buy an ice cream on the beach and the ice cream seller says 'Enjoy'. Using enjoy as an imperative only started in the 1980s or 1990s. In 1920 they'd have said (correctly) 'Enjoy your ice cream'.
