Historical movies are on my favorite lists. They show you stories of the past and link the mysteriou bygone days to where you are. To learn something of mankind's history makes a man wise and reasonable. But history is also written by mankind. And a man often writes from a specific standpoint. He might focus on one point and leave out others. It's hard to define a piece of history as true or fictitious in this sense. I'm interested in the the people and the stories.

Hi MizukiZHR, I too like watching historical movies, probably because I have always liked history. Most historical movies are part true and part fictitious, but I like the idea of seeing how people lived in that time period. Blessings.
