Reply to "Why can't the movie studios ever get it right?"

It's entertainment, not an historical documentary.  Evocative is more important than strictly accurate in all details.  Some care about trains, the vast majority of audiences could care less. It's not exactly the focus of the film and story. People also spoke quite differently in past eras.  Imagine if a drama about Henry II and Thomas Becket actually used, assuming we could recreate it, 12th century English.  No one in 2017 would understand a word in all likelihood.
