Raiders of the Lost Ark came out in 1981, but was set in 1936 - a difference of 45 years. If they made the film today, the same time difference would mean it would be set in 1981.

Saw a version with a live orchestra recently. I find these posts fascinating but also incredibly aging.

The stage musical of Grease came out in 1971. It’s set in 1958. If a similar period piece were made today it would be set in 2013.
