They have Zippo lighters like that n that time?

[–] legalizeranch (28) 6 years ago

Yes. They weren't made by Zippo at that point though, Zippo didn't come around until the 1930s

Apostle (2018) (movie): In 1905, a drifter on a dangerous mission to rescue his kidnapped sister tangles with a sinister religious cult on an isolated island.

...according to the Moviechat page.

thanks - it was so hard to tell.

Yeah, reading 1905 in the synopsis confused the hell out of me too.

If you watch the movie it is very generic was my point.

I had trouble determining that also. There were no historical references except for King and country which meant it was not in the Victorian era. I thought it was in the 1930s.
