      The slavery era of the United states was a hell of a thing. Some slave states basically had laws where if a black person was in state for a certain length of time, free or not, they could be considered slaves and captured and sold. This was briefly mentioned near the end of the original Roots. Of course, that series openly took a ton of liberties with the truth but that was very real.

      It was 'based on a true story', but actually 'based on the journals of John Smith'.

Smith has very little to do with Pocahontas in reality. They might have seen each other once.

    "Boys Don't Cry", the 1999 movie about Brandon Teena. Starring Hillary Swank as the transgender Brandon, the movie leaves out a huge amount of facts about Teena's death. Brandon and Candace Lambert were both killed by Tom Nissen and John Lotter, but for some reason the movie leaves out the murder of Phillip DeVine, who was also visiting Candace and Teena that day. The movie also shows Candace's baby crawling out of the house on it's own, but in reality they took the baby out and left it in a cornfield to starve to death. And, lastly, the movie shows Lana Tisdel trying desperately to protect Brandon from being killed, but the sad reality is that the police suspected that Lana and her mother, Linda, set up Brandon to be murdered. I have no idea why the movie changed some really important facts about the case.

      @@masilomoshesh1475 I have to say that families should not be "offended" by the retelling of such a famous and well-known piece of history; as dark, tragic and macabre as it may be. Maybe a bit hurt everytime they see it retold, but not offended. And honestly I don't think the family would watch this movie either way, no matter what the ending had been. I understand what you're saying, and it sounds like a sweet enough sentiment, but I respectfully disagree with it. No matter how "sweet" or "inoffensive" we wish to be, it simply doesn't alter history's twisted facts. If it were a loved one of mine that had been so brutally murdered, I would prefer the truth to be told. The truth, with a focus on how completely innocent and adored my loved one was; how utterly unfair what happened was, showing just how many people it actually affected, for the victims go far beyond "just" the ones murdered that night. The truth, with a focus on how evil & twisted the perpetrators were; never giving in to any sort of "understanding" of their perspective, showing only their guilt & vileness. Their selfishness & greed.
      But that's just me and my opinion. We all see things differently. Maybe you are right and I'm wrong. It really doesn't matter who's "right" or "wrong" though. Maybe we're both a bit right and a bit wrong. Either way, I just thought I'd share another perspective on the matter.

    The commentary about Schindler reminds of another Holocaust hero: Raul Wallenberg, a Swede in the Budapest consulate. He used his connections to get Jews jobs at the consulate thus protecting them. At the end of the war, the Russians took him off. His younger brother searched for decades to find him, only to eventually realize that the rest of his family had paid off the Russians so they could claim the family fortune. The rest of the family had been actively impeding the brother's efforts to find him. I know all this because said brother's daughter is a close family friend.

I remember asking my mother why on Earth the Russians would take him away. What would they want with a Swedish man who has done them no harm? It's so disturbing that his own family orchestrated his capture (and I presume his death as well). It's sickening. His younger brother must have been horrified when he realized what his own family had done.

    I thought that Remember The Titans did a good job bringing up just how tough Coach Boone was on these young he coached. You saw the way he was verbally abusive to the starting running back to the point of the young man was ready to quit until the assistant coach told hom he could play on the defense. You also saw how he was when players asked for a water break and he would make them work even harder. And the sense I felt that really hit home with how tough Boone was, was the up down scene. Where in blistering heat these players were working out in drills so long that his own assistant walked up and said, "there's a difference between being tough and crazy. And you're flirting with it right now" Boone called a hault to the drill and many players broke down and started to vomit or pass out.

      The Oscars are a popularity contest. There are some absolutely incredible actors that have never won. Example: Johnny Depp transforms into practically a new person every movie but he's constantly overlooked. I respect George C. Scott (won Best Actor in 1971) for standing his ground on the Oscars. He told them twice he wouldn't accept it and told them not to even put his name on the ballot (called the whole thing a "two hour meat parade"). He won and, when someone accepted for him, returned it the next day. Personally, I think the only reason he won is bc their legitimacy was being called into question that year so who better to give the win to than a man that hates it? No way they can be rigged then, right? Now, I just accept that the winners will be whomever campaigned the most

    The Von Trapps also did not sneak out in the middle of the night during a concert nor did they escape through the mountains. They were already an established music group and left by train to perform a concert in Italy, where they were legal citizens because Georg had been born in what is now Croatia. The concert tour took them t the US, where they eventually applied for immigtant status. They also had ten kids, not seven, but who's counting? Georg and Maria had also been married for eleven years at that point. But the version of events as told in the movie/play, but it made for a better story with all those changes.

    With 'Once Upon a Time In Hollywood' the changed ending is literally THE WHOLE POINT O F THE FILM! That is why it's 'Once Upon a Time' - the traditional beginning to FAIRY TALES. Tarantino has taken what everyone knows to be a story with a tragic ending and has instead given it the traditional fairy tale happy ending. Hollywood has a dark underbelly and is full of real life tragedies, but it's also 'the Dream Factory' - so what better place to set a fairy story where reality is subverted and instead the baddies get their comeuppance and the princess lives happily ever after...

      @@cherylbo889 short answer? To try to reduce stigma associated with mental health issues. Long answer? Try is the operative word and while most people will suffer some stress after a traumatic event so, yeah, it is a “normal” reaction in that sense - clinical diagnosis means that the stress reaction is either of an intensity or duration that it interferes in major life function and is “disordered.” Not that PTSS - Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome is all that different. Syndrome vs Disorder is a matter of semantics. The understanding of PTSD and how it is classified and treated have changed dramatically over the last 40+ years. We now know that it’s far more common and that the types of trauma that can cause it are more varied than once thought. This is a good thing - more understanding, better treatment options, more folks getting help, etc. Lots of folks with what we know as PTSD today would have been diagnosed as having “shell shock” or “hysteria” or be labeled as morally or mentally deficient in the past. All of which are problematic since they have heaping piles of judgements and stigma attached. Some language changes are aimed at trying to overcome that prejudice. Others reflect better understanding. Some do, or at least attempt, both.

I explain it as an huge alarm that goes off at times when it's not necessary (anymore). Ofcourse we all have different experiences. But I do believe our brains are wired a certain way. Especially when it comes to PTSD. I have had PTSD for a long time and have been PTSD-free for a year now. It has been a huge battle (understatement) but it was worth it.

    Gladiator was a remake of the 1964 movie Fall of the Roman Empire. They cover the same period of time where the last of the good emperors Marcus Aurelius dies and is followed as Emperor by his son the horrible gladiator emperor Commodus. In Gladiator Maximus the former general kills Commodus in the arena and though he dies, Commodus's sister then starts a rule in Rome that involves the senators and is supposed be like the ancient Roman Republic.
    Commodus actually was emperor for 15 years. He killed his sister in the first couple years of his reign. He was killed in his bed/assassinated by a wrestler. The Praetorian than auctioned off the emperorship. A senator Pertinax was the highest bidder but died within the year. The next year was the infamous year of the five emperors where five different men were emperor for a part of the year as they pulled the Empire apart. There was never a return to the republic or the democracy suggested at the end of the movie. The Emperor Septimus Severus fully restored the Empire a year after the death of Commodus.
    The point of the original movie was that this was the last bright moment of the empire under Aurelius. The movie Gladiator gave you some sort of roman democracy fantasy ending

      This reminds me of Laura Dern’s speech in ‘The Exorcism of Emily Rose’- does it have to actually be a process of casting out real demons? Not necessarily. If the person being exorcised truly BELIEVES they are possessed or they just need God to move on the them, and that’s what is mentally plaguing them, there’s a strong chance it will work. The power of persuasion is intense.
      I grew up Apostolic Pentecostal, and attended several exorcisms, the ‘casting out of demons’, (against my will- I was a terrified child 😅) and saw people contort and speak in voices that came seemingly straight from a movie. After the exorcism, they expressed relief and joy, and several were able to overcome addictions and live a better life. Do I know for a fact it was demons? No. Is it possible? I don’t know what is and isn’t possible in this life. All I know is in THEIR mind, they overcame the big thing that was stopping them from leading a full life. So at least metaphorically, they were ‘free’ from their traumas. I think the same thing happened to him.

    I lived with my grandpa around this movies time (1996) and they changed a lot of things to make the story have heroic parts and to keep from having to pay royalties to me grandpa's kids. I don't condone anything he did in his past or support him, he died a hated man and not even his children cried in his last days for his death from what my brother told me. I haven't spoken to my father in years either. My grandpa was a hateful man and was far from a hero but i will say that Mike Burden wasn't a hero and if anyone in that story can be called one, it's the Preacher that bought the item.

      @@01scottydogg wow, one of the nicest thought out comments I've ever gotten, I'm doing a lot better. My father will never meet my family or my brother's family due too the past but that doesn't bother me, my wife has asked about meeting him and i just told her she could if she felt the need to but i won't be there so she didn't want to after that. Thank you for your comment

    In regards to a beautiful mind you neglected to mention that Nash had an illegitimate child with a woman he considered to be lower class because she didn’t have as high level an education as his so he refused to accept the child was his. And not to mention Alicia was a 19 year old college freshman when they met while nash was a middle aged college professor. Yea, dating and impregnating his own students. Real stand out guy right there!

    Great job! However, the 1997 ‘true’ movie Buddy had a horrible real ending. Would love u2 do a video about that. Poor Buddy in the movie ended up at a peaceful sanctuary, but in real life the gorilla was sold to a circus. Thanks for all your channel does!

    Please watch documentary about Schindler's wife. He was not as noble as you might seem, his wife was. She deeply cared for people. He left her alone in Argentina to go to Germany and claim compensation. Even if he promised to bring her later, he never did. His wife is a hero who unfortunately was never recognized.

    I always tought the ending to Once upon a time meant the Mansons would come back to finish the job. The way Tate calls Rick on the speakor phone is kind of creepy. Cliff won't be there to defend them.and they even go out their way to mention the dog is out of the equation and they litteraly leave the door open.

    You left out the ending of Nitram. Absolutely sickening buildup but the abrupt cut was an incredible relief and great act of respect.

    Flight (2012) - it claims to be based on true events; the disaster in the film is inspired by a real crash, but while in the film most of the people on-board survive in the real disaster everyone died.

      At least for a while, people were unsure about Duchess Anastasia's fate (they thought for a long time that her and her brother's remains were missing from the spot where the Romanovs were buried, which was why it was speculated that she might have survived).
