I think ‘Tora, Tora, Tora’ was pretty accurate.

Much more accurate than “Pearl Harbor.” I was routing for the Japanese to shoot down Ben Affleck.

I have heard from someone who was there, that “We Were Soldiers” is fairly accurate.

Anything by Michael Moore has to rate right up there.

"A Bug's Life". Pixar.

“Gone With The Wind” has always been considered one of the most accurate portrayals of a novel on the big screen.

My father, who was at Pearl Harbor and saw Tora, Tora, Tora, would beg to differ.

Harry Potter? All movies exaggerate. Just read an article on “Lone Survivor” concerning this issue. I understand “Blackhawk Down” was pretty accurate.

“Battle of the Bulge” was pretty accurate. Not a great war flick but it was underrated.

I think the original “In Cold Blood” was very accurate assuming Truman Capote’s book was accurate. I lived in Garden City for five years and the only difference was I read an article in the paper where Alvin Dewey disagreed somewhat with the portrayal of “Dick Hickock” in the movie and book but I think that was about it.

Oliver Stone’s flicks have a great deal of accuracy as well. Take “JFK” .....he got the fact that JFK was president and was assassinated correct. So what if the other 98% of the movie was b.s.
To: PJ-Comix
“Patton” pretty much followed history but some key elements were left out.
My comment on “The Right Stuff”. The book was written about Chuck Yaeger but the script focused on the astronauts and touched on Yeager only as an aside.

Battle of the Bulge was pretty accurate. Are you kidding? That was one of the most factually inaccurate films about WWII starting with those American tanks the Germans were using.

Military training movies were quite accurate especially CBN and of course the VD training.
