The really cool part is a former Alexandria Radio Club member and his son were extras in the movie.  The ARRL website had a story on it a few weeks ago.

I really got a got a good idea of what it must have been like back then  to be a telegraph operator! And the antique telegraphs were works of art in brass and mahogany.
