#28: American Hustle
A notable anachronism surfaces in the acclaimed 2013 film American Hustle, lauded for its meticulous depiction of the 1970s era. Louis C.K.’s character is seen wearing a 2010 Rolex watch, a glaring oversight that disrupts the film’s historical accuracy. Despite the timepiece fitting his character’s persona, its presence stands out against the carefully crafted backdrop of the 1970s setting.
