At 46 minutes into the film, when the "Venture", having changed course for Rangoon, goes into a heavy fog bank, the crew is shown as fearful, sensing something wrong. The camera focuses on individual crew members, one by one. When the camera shows Jamie Bell (as "Jimmy" the stowaway), he is sitting on a landing, feet braced against a railing, reading his stolen copy of Conrad's "Heart of Darkness". The shot clearly shows the sole of his boot against the railing as having a deeply lugged Vibram® rubber sole. This type of rubber sole was not invented and patented until 1937, and was designed for mountain climbers, so even had Vibram-soled boots been around in 1933, it is highly unlikely that a deckhand like the character Jimmy would have been able to acquire or afford a pair.
