Speaking for myself, all I ask it that the makers of historically based films try in good faith to re-create real-life events as faithfully as possible & I don't want them to sugar coat nor politicize anything. Its filmaking malpractice.

The worst example of this kind of revisionism was in the Bruckheimer film Pearl Harbor, a scene where Japanese bomber pilots were trying to warn away a group of little leaguers who'd stopped playing their game to watch the attack unfold. Ridiculous attempt to personalize the attackers and done only to make the movie more palatable to overseas audiences.

Not to mention that the first Little League outside of Pennsylvania was founded in New Jersey in 1947 . . .
