Gangs of New York
Released in 2002, this critically acclaimed film has plenty of big names behind it: Daniel Day-Lewis, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Cameron Diaz, just to name a few. The film takes a nuanced look at the New York Draft Riots, which erupted in 1863. Of course, a year-specific setting requires year-specific background details. For the most part, Gangs of New York is a successful film in that respect. However, there is one small detail that was overlooked. The firemen featured wear uniforms that do not look much different than what firemen wear today. However, the firefighter uniforms of 1863 would have realistically looked much different.
