But isn't Ron Howard part of the Democrat Hollywood "left"? I think his former colleagues Andy Griffith and Henry Winkler are also part of that leftist grouping. Correct me if I am wrong, please.

I have no idea what Ron Howard's affiliation is. I DO know, though, that he is a stickler for exact detail when he does films on specific historical incidents. Changing the story to fit modern sensibilities would go against the grain for him.

Howard would put out a great film..whatever party affiliation..he also has the clout! to do what he wants to do and how he wants to do it.
