[Regia-NA] About productions based on historical legends?

[Chris Boulton]

It's one of those things that's common to all historical or technological subjects depicted on film or TV. Like for instance - the World War 2 movie using American Chaffees as German tanks, or the TV documentary claiming that the P47 had a Merlin engine....

To those who know (and the problem for the film makers is that far more people _do_ know than they think) it's really annoying to see history misrepresented, and re-enactment societies tend to be rather well stocked with people who know!

So if you want to find plenty of people complaining vociferously about historical inaccuracies or whatnot in films - pick whatever re-enactment society you please and you'll find plenty there.

's just one of them things...

Cheers,

Chris.
