She certainly made for the most adorable Amelia Earhart ever

She's the only thing that made that movie watchable.

Of course, an attractive Amelia Earhart and a cowardly George Custer are historically inaccurate.

Plus, Hollywood doesn't know what to do with their uber-venerated figures. The Tuskegee Airmen were portrayed as chanting morons, and Pocagawea was a stiff, boring scold (I can't remember if the female native american character was Pocahontas or Sacagawea).

George Custer was not a coward. Shortsighted and vainglorious, yes, a coward no.

Amelia Earhart? I've never seen a picture of her cleaned up, so I'll reserve judgement.
