I’m sure JFK by Stone was accurate in its characterization of the key players and the truth surrounding each action of 22 Nov 1963.
I’m sure The Alamo, with its star-studded cast, captured the angst, heroism, legacy of my ancestors and the facts of history.
I’m sure Passion of the Christ not only got the language perfect, but the Jewish social and moral facts about this time in history–not to forget their clothing–with picture perfect accuracy.
I’m sure Stone got it right a second time with Alexander, as well. Snakes, sex and spectacle were the order of the day as the world was conquered.
I’ve yet to meet anyone who goes to the movies with the intent of learning historical or scientific fact (just look how popular “An Inconvenient Truth” is). Commentary such as this says more about the author’s sensibilities and ‘victimhood’ than it does about a Hollywood pulp film.
