Hi, I really liked the movie. Billy Wonka pointed out DeNiros facial expressions. He looked like a guy that just ate a lemon and was nodding his head.That made me laugh before I read Billy's review. Also,the details of portraying what year it was,costumes,cars, was outstanding but I saw the twin towers in what time frame would be the sixties?....Mark Korda

According to Wiki, the Towers opened in April 1973 . . . - Billy Wonka 07:10:55 12/24/19 (0)
but they would have already been part of the skyline a few years earlier.
The Twin Towers scene threw us off... - musetap 14:55:17 12/21/19 (1)
for a moment before realizing the time frame of the film had jumped a couple years forward.

I think Watergate was on the news in the very next scene.

No way would Scorsese screw-up that sort of continuity.

  Like when our parents would yell at the TV: "Wait a minute! Social Security cards only had 5 digits back then!" How could someone miss that!"
