Nobody is looking for historical accuracy in these kind of movies. We know these are all about turning the story into a 3 act movie structure, they are at best “inspired” by real events. But since life just doesn’t follow the 3 act structure they’re doomed to be inaccurate. The good news is though that they often inspire new documentaries, or meta documentaries that pull from other documentaries. Especially in this modern world with all the streaming options. So then people who enjoyed the movie and want to learn the reality of it can go watch those. And who knows, maybe they even inspire the next generation of scholars on the subject.

Nice of you speak for everyone and anecdotally make stuff up, but educated people don't appreciate obvious bullshit - like Napoleon blowing up pyramids as a geriatric old fart.
