Hello, thank you for your question. In the movie, you did find a different saying, that is, Sophie traveled back to Howl's childhood at the beginning of the movie. This theory originated from the script of the movie. In order to construct a more complete story line, the director had moved Sophie's time travel forward to the beginning of the movie.
However, no matter what, it was reasonable because the plot of the movie was not absolute. It depended on the thoughts of the director and screenwriter. Therefore, you can choose the words that suit you according to your preferences and thoughts.
The movie might have altered the pacing of the true story. In real life, the events probably didn't unfold as neatly as they did in the movie. The movie had to condense a lot of the journey into a two - hour time frame, so some parts were sped up or skipped over. For example, there were likely more stops and interactions during their travels that didn't make it into the movie.
