It is fiction in lieu of fact. It is all the same to Mr. De Palma.
Watch for Roger Ebert to stand up for him as he did Spike Lee and Oliver Stone to say that you should not expect a history lesson when watching a biopic and basically that it is your own fault if you fall for the lies of a filmmaker.

This particular film is in very bad taste but Ebert is right about that. Drama never lies. Shakespeare's History Plays were bogus as well.
