In Reply to: Thoughts on sort-of-documentaries such as Munich, Cash, Ray etc.... posted by PdL on January 1, 2006 at 13:17:04:
think you're post begins on a wrong foot.
They are fictionalized accounts of "true" events and personalities but, in a way, so are just about all dramas. So, unless you'd blur the lines between drama and documentaries, you're confused (is Spartacus sort-of-documentary, or El Cid?).
Now, your last sentence is the interesting part: is it legitimate for a director to twist factual events to suit either narrative aesthetics or a personal agenda?
I'd argue the first is ok as long as no significant facts are misrepresented.
