I don't think there's any copyvio there... the text is too
small to 
be readable on the movie screen, and the Victoria image is
public 
domain.  But the movie industry is as a whole pretty anal
about 
crediting even the most incidental use of copyrighted or
trademarked 
things... is there any mention of Wikipedia somewhere in the
closing 
credits?

Technically, it should mention the authors listed on the
history page,
rather than Wikipedia. Wikipedia is just a user like any
other.
