Cars didn’t commonly have headrests until the 1960s. Doesn’t really stand out if you remember that.
That was 60 years ago, and very few of those cars are still on the road.
Rearview mirrors get removed too. Sometimes, especially on column-shift cars, the transmission is still in park.
The way they insert IVs. Your veins don't run perpendicular.
Something that bugged me in the new Stranger Things. In one episode, El turns on a flashlight. It's a mag light, with a click button, but she twists it on and the sfx person still put in a button clicking noise. I'm pretty sure the light beam itself was vfx, too.

When the movie is filmed at 27 frames per second instead of 26. Ugh.
Shitty fire sfx. Holy fucking shit, why is the campfire almost as loud as the fucking dialog!? Snap, crackle, pop! It’s so fucking grating.
Hollywood fire noise is always cartoonish and corny. But if you've ever been close to fire, it is noisy. Campfires are noisy, though not loud enough to halt speech comprehension. Large bonfires are loud. And there's a reason firefighters learn to communicate with signs and touch. Smoke blinds and house fires are deafening.
People almost never misspeak or mishear anything.
