History is malleable they say. Written by the winners of wars, yadda yadda yadda. Well over the last hundred years, historical knowledge has been influenced by filmmakers. Not necessarily a good thing. Screenwriters and directors like to take liberties with historical facts in order to tell a better story. Those liberties have a tendency to seep into the public conscience. We thought it would be fun in this season finale to shine a light on when historical films and period TV shows get history right, but mostly when they get it wrong.
