Amadeus: Mozart’s Sippers Didn’t Exist Yet
The movie gave us a glimpse into what Mozart’s life was like during the 18th century in Austria by allowing us to see it through his eyes. Regardless of how stunning the film was, it was not enough to make up for the fact that the intricate costumes should not have had any zippers that were visible.
It is more accurate to say that zippers should not exist at all because they wouldn’t be invented for another century or so at the earliest.
The Color Purple: Clip-on Ties Didn’t Exist Yet
The novel by the same name that won Alice Walker the Pulitzer Prize was adapted into the film by the same name. The movie has received its fair share of critical acclaim, but the costumes do not match up with the tone of the rest of the film.
It was implausible for Danny Glover to wear a clip-on tie because the era in which the events of the story took place did not have access to such a fashion accessory.
