Historically Accurate Movies That Didn't Have to Make Stuff Up to Be Interesting (Ranker)

"The sheer number of inaccurate films about the past prove that movies aren't history lessons. But every now and then, a historical film comes out that gets the facts right. These films generally stick to the truth because the facts are almost too wild to believe, like the story of a German officer who tried to assassinate Hitler or the wildly dysfunctional family life of a medieval king. In all of these stories, screenwriters didn't have to invent much drama; the facts were dramatic enough. Accuracy isn't always about recreating events exactly as they happened or in the order they occurred. Sometimes, films are authentic in different ways, like in their portrayal of historical figures and the relationships that determined their lives." - ranker.com
