[16:04] Amadeus painted Mozart as a crazy man
[18:33] Sully was a real event, but it was overdramatized to get viewers
[20:45] The Greatest Showman - not so great himself, more like abusive
[23:32] Remember the Titans is not how desegregation went down at all
[26:58] The movie, Rudy, misrepresented the actual person
