Both Clark's "Kids," and Linklater's "Suburbia." You'll never know what it was like to sit on the curb behind a 7/11 and smoke weed while touching your friend's boob. Silly now, but that meant you ruled the world at the time. That's all we wanted, we had love, but Google was not involved. It's a little horrifying to think as adults that we were getting AIDS and shooting heroin as a good time at age 12, but that's how it was. Be happy you are getting fat on overpriced sliced fruit now. (Not really, I guess).
Not really. They took events that happened in the 1940s and moved them into the 1960s, so it looks like none of the civil rights struggles in the 50s had ever happened. Think of it like a WW2 film that puts Pearl Harbor at the end of the war.
That's only because its not technically history, when it was made it didn't describe events that happened in the past. It was pre-history. It described what was going to happen.
I’ll never forget I think twelve years a slave came out when I was twelve (I’m twenty four now) and I remember watching it with my dad. I can remember a bunch of stuff about that movie but what I remember in particular were the droves of Caucasian people crying and leaving the theater as they were beating that girl in the movie, and those that didn’t leave were still crying. I’ll never forget it it’s a vivid memory.
I watched Django Unchained in a packed theatre sitting beside a group of black guys. And I’m bald and shave my head, so I was noticed. 😂 But we were laughing together, cheering, nudging between me and the guy next to me. That was a good time.
I have to see more of these films. I do remember seeing the big short in theaters. That was fantastic! I've seen some of these other films as well such as zodiac and flags of our fathers although I would like to check out that other one that came out the same year.
@@Dukenukem Historians and Navy officials say Emmerich’s film is the most historically accurate version. Naval History and Heritage Command director and retired Navy Rear Admiral Sam Cox said: "Despite some of the 'Hollywood' aspects, this is still the most realistic movie about naval combat ever made."
Where _Pearl Harbor_ painted a more dramatized, more-fiction-than-fact picture of the attack on the titular naval base, _Tora! Tora! Tora!_ was a much more realistic retelling and a film I wish I had seen as a sophomore in high school American history.
In many ways Pearl Harbor was a sad joke. They spent all their money on depictions of battleships and went super cheap when they took 1970-1990 Spruance class destroyers and tried to pass them as significantly different World War II class tin cans. Also, military hating Alec Baldwin as shorter and more impressive Jimmy Doolittle. Sad.
Except that Catch me if you can has been proven to be false. Excellent movie with stellar perfomances, but the book it was based one turned out to be completely false and the author conned the entire industry. The irony
Seems to me Saving Private Ryan should be on this list as I've heard from every person who had been left from that war would leave the theater in tears after a viewing.
Bridges of Spies appeared to be a story with some real names and events woven into a fictional story. Apollo 13 was better, but still had far too much artistic license taken.
Great list. I have Tora, Tora, Tora, All the Presidents Men, Bridge of Spies and Apollo on BD, and thought Till, The Big Short, and 12 years a slave were good to very good. I will have to watch the other 3. I would add Black Hawk Down to at least the Honorable Mentions.
"Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. Mankind. That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it's fate that today is the 4th of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom … Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution … but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice: 'We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going to survive!' Today we celebrate our Independence Day!"
Black Hawk Down. I know someone who went to West Point. He said they show that movie because of the story accuracy and the accuracy of how they portray the fighting.
The 70s version of ‘Midway’ used actual footage captured by John Ford. One of Americas greatest directors was trapped on Midway island during one of the greatest battles in history with his camera!
I Think The film, Hidden Figures is missing from this list. It shows a thought provoking and engaging portrayal of African American mathematicians, Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughn and Mary Jackson working for NASA when helping John Glenn launch into orbit. It deserves an academy award!
If big newspapers and outlets want to be taken seriously they need to start doing their job properly. Look at things honestly and fairly. If they don't they can't blame us for not trusting them.
Gettysburg! Finally. My all-time favorite movie ever. Excellent, riveting, tremendous movie, epic of heroism and brutality. Great film, smashing and superior to any before or after. Great epic.
As a CPA and financial analyst earlier in life, The Big Short was amazing. In a stint as an adjunct professor, I actually taught about the 2008 housing bubble.
I am obsessed with every film relating to the 2008 financial crisis (was going to be a CPA, became a CHFP instead), whether it be a film based on real events or a documentary. This one is definitely my favorite.
I always felt that Martin Sheen was too small to play Lee, as Lee was a very tall man. I thought Daniel Day-Lewis's voice of Lincoln seemed to come closest to the "squeaky voice" that eyewitnesses described his voice as being.
Considering the court scenes were based on actual records and in used in both college level history and legal courses, I'm surprised "Amistad" was not in the list.
Good list. However, I think you missed one of the best and very accurate movie called "Spotlight". It's a film drama that covers the Boston Globe's expose of the Catholic Church's pedophile priests throughout New England and ultimately, the world.
I have seen several of these movies, not many of the recent ones about the civil rights movement or the slave trade due to seeing others from the past and reading so much about those horrors, but one of my favorites was in this list with All the President's Men. I have a anniversary blu-ray copy of the movie and remember, I think I was ten, when my folks showed it and explained to me what happened. I didn't fully understand it until seeing it again in a high school government class and I became transfixed. I also remember my folks telling me that the first time, just after I was born, they took me to visit my paternal grandparents was the day that Nixon resigned in disgrace. I have studied many books about him because he was a fascinating politician and president who destroyed his legacy with his lack of confidence, paranoia, and vindictive behavior. My mom made reference to him in that Trump was the return of Nixon but I pointed out that Nixon accomplished much more than Trump. Yes, Nixon was a racist, antisemitic, misogynistic, had an enemies list, and would turn his cabinet members against each other. However, his administration established EPA, opened trade with China to avoid a second cold war, he was a published author, avid bowler, and reader. Of course, besides Watergate, there were some other not so great things his administration did with the creation of the war on drugs, which the architect of it, John Ehrlichman, later said that it had nothing to do with stopping drugs but to use it against the hippie movement and Black Panthers to scare voters into putting Nixon in the White House, and then there was how secretary of state Henry Kissinger's foreign policies that involved Cambodia, leading to the rise of Pol Pot, his Khmer Rouge, and the killing fields, along with their support for the Pakistani dictator at that time fighting the Bangladesh Liberation War that lead to mass genocide. Such a dark time for our country but also a time when journalists worked the beat to get the facts of the stories and I still think that All the President's Men should be required viewing for all Americans.
I don't inherently disagree with choices on this list (though I think it is antebellum/Civil War and WWII heavy) but the order is off. The Big Short for instance is by no means perfect but takes an incredibly complex issue and makes it accessible while being still entraining it should a couple spots higher. As should Till is based on 27 years of research that led to the DOJ reopening the case plus. Also Bridge of Spies is beautiful made and important film but it has a decent amount accuracy issues especially timeline wise and characterizations.
I know the movie adaptation of the book Unbroken where it shows the cruelty of the Japanese during World War II. I think that should be on the top 20 list for being historically accurate.
@@jesseowenvillamor6348 Twilight: Los Angeles 1992. It was a one-woman show written/acted by playwright Anna Deavere Smith. She played a startling array of characters and how their life experiences merged that night. I saw the play and it was unforgettable.
@11:25 if read the actual book of "12 years a slave" it would make you wonder why and how a large segment of the african american population is so religious. slaves were force fed Christianity, a religion which preaches forgiveness to those who wronged them no matter what.
@@CandiceViditoAnd he thinks we’re the problem? What kind of world does he live in if he believes being told to ignore StanHalen, whose comments are also uncalled for, is evidence of cyberbullying?
@@CandiceVidito He's a kid who's entire goal is to make people mad. Nothing makes him smile more than you calling him rude. It's his goal. Dont feed the trolls. Also, you should check out The Big Short out of all of these. Not just full of truth, but extremely entertaining.
@@Jeremiah_Rivers76 I have no idea but he thinks that stooping to StanHalen's level will make him stop. It seems he is a child in mind and in body if he thinks that will work.
Those are both based on novels and fictional characters; not intended to be historical other than their settings. The real Little Big Man was a Oglala Lakota. Jack Crab of the film was a white boy adopted by the Cheyenne.
Sadly it never fails to surprise me that no other cultures live in America other than black and white when any sort of accuracy is applied if they care to show it at all. Lmao😂
Although it's an accurate depiction of the worst of the Great Depression, I think they were focusing on movies that portrayed real-life people and historical events.
@stevensiferd7104 I am with you on that. But I would call it a consentration on 'particular' historical events. I feel the term real-life can be reached via fiction. IMHO "Horses" does that. It feels very real But I agree "Horses" didn't fit their theme.

The 13th Amendment was January 1865, not 1854 ... 8:23 in the Transcript.

Lincoln is set in January 1865, not 1854.
AI fucked up
When rating movies for historical accuracy, be sure to have historical accuracy.
Hidden figures should be a mention
I was gonna say this.
Yes, at the very least.
Definitely!
Maybe because they used a lot of fictional characters in it.
Not really. They took events that happened in the 1940s and moved them into the 1960s, so it looks like none of the civil rights struggles in the 50s had ever happened. Think of it like a WW2 film that puts Pearl Harbor at the end of the war.
I’m surprised Oppenheimer isn’t here, I remember everyone talking about historically accurate it
Except for the fact that in the celebration scene in the auditorium, people were waiving 50-starred flags, in 1945.
@@nonenone7761 yeah, one shot 😅 but that could be attributed to scsne being actual flashback and he remembering wrong
huh, i must be getting blind, because im not seeing Idiocracy anywhere in the list
That's only because its not technically history, when it was made it didn't describe events that happened in the past. It was pre-history. It described what was going to happen.
It hasn't happen yet, give it time.
Because Idocracy is a documentary.
Reather be blind than idiot.

Lmao. They were probably faking it
I watched Django Unchained in a packed theatre sitting beside a group of black guys. And I’m bald and shave my head, so I was noticed. 😂 But we were laughing together, cheering, nudging between me and the guy next to me. That was a good time.
I would have ranked Lincoln higher, but that's just me. And Apollo 13 is a deserving movie for the top spot.

Free State of Jones is one of my favorite, historically accurate movies about slavery and The Civil War.
Midway(2019) deserves an honorable mention

I would've included Oliver Stone's Born on the Fourth of July. Fantastic movie.
Till stands out to me as how America back then was and still fighting unjustice today
Injustice, not "unjustice"
It was founded by injustice - rebel against your own ruler, then stealing land 😂
Where _Pearl Harbor_ painted a more dramatized, more-fiction-than-fact picture of the attack on the titular naval base, _Tora! Tora! Tora!_ was a much more realistic retelling and a film I wish I had seen as a sophomore in high school American history.
That movie is so sad because it happened. But its been a while since I last seen it

Missing: A League of Their Own, Catch me if you can, Miracle on Ice,
