Themes in American History

Reading the review shed light to the the conflicts that exist in movie making in respect to historical events. The facts were altered to boost movie image. This alteration distorts key aspect of the time exaggerating groups such as Asians in NYC at the time and underplaying social ills such violence against women. It makes me very concern for the large budget public presentation of facts tells an untrue story with weak character depiction. I expect the film to be highly creative with great cinematography used to make up for the fact that the characters and event description distorted the image of the melting pot of five points NYC. More or less more quantity but less quality.
