Don't have to be stupid to think things they never saw in real life weren't as common as they are in movies. I have a kid in high school who never saw a working public phone that I'm aware of. When I pointed out a place where one used to be mounted outside shesaid "Oh, so it is like in the movies."

Movies do often exaggerated things, so asking is reasonable if someone is young enough.
