I'll have a guess.

The movie 'Pearl Harbor' (2001)

No correct answers.

Clue #1 - the movie was released after the year 2000 and did win some academy awards.

We have a correct answer by Zurie. It is from the hand washing scene in the movie "The Aviator".

I thought that looked like Leonardo Dicaprio's hand!

Hollywood learned a long time ago, if they show a letter, coin, or foreign currency on the screen, it had better be correct.

In the film, 'The Quiet Man', it certainly looks like they threw a wad of Five Pound Ploughman notes into the fire !

Now, if they would just get new coins instead of the worn-out junkers. They save a little money on set dressing, but coins that were new in 1941 should look it.

I suspect the majority of nickels in 1941 would still be buffalos.

Maybe, but from 1938 to 1940, there were nearly 420,000,000 Jeffs minted. That excludes anything minted in 1941 (over 300,000,000 total that year). To match that, you need Buff mintage from 1929-1938 to total nearly 460,000,000. I get the point, though, of a moderately established coin being more prevalent over a coin introduced a few years ago, despite its mintage.

Fun facts!

More likely: the set designer thought Jeffersons would look too much like modern coins given the longevity of the design.
