Historical movies, fact or fiction, aren’t untouched by it. With every passing year, Netflix has been broadening its horizon regarding the genre of stories it tells. There’s a reason they say “history repeats itself”. They are informative, they are entertaining, and most importantly, they are the warning signs, alerting us of what the world could be like if we, humans, make the same mistakes again. No matter which category you fall in, you can’t deny the importance of historical movies. For another section, these could very well be the films in the fantasy genre. For some people, who are more invested in the story than the hi-story(!) these are the fascinating tales of another time, of a society they don’t live in, and a world they’ll never get to see (unless the time machine is invented!). For history nerds, they become a topic of profound discussions- pulling all the threads, pointing out mistakes, and debating the impact of the events. These films serve many purposes while being massively entertaining. History might not have been your favorite subject in school, but that doesn’t mean you can’t like historical movies.
