Recently, there's been a lot of talk about fake news and fact-checking the contents of the news and what public figure say. However, I haven't heard much about measuring the veracity of movies.
This site was kind of interesting.
It purports to rank the relative veracity of various movies.
For example, "Selma" is impressively accurate (as is "The Big Short") … "The Imitation Game"? Not so much.
This interactive breakdown lets you be as "pedantic" as you want — letting the "truth" be relatively flexible, or seating the truth-scale at "only what objectively happened".
So, where does your favorite film fall?
Pretty interesting.
