One of my favorites movie! Chocking story! Hard growing up in his shoes in the 70s! Glad they made a movie 'bout it!

I enjoyed it , but
I've heard it's historical accuracy is questionable. I really don't know the ins and outs of that one, but the story ( even if Hollywood) is a damn good one.
I heard that too. That's the main reason I put off watching it...but I'll probably watch it in the next few days. It's not the first and certainly won't be the last Hollywood film to exaggerate details.
