(Two movies that ticked me off in that regard - the Three Musketeers killin of Richelieu (sp?) a man who died at a great old age for the time, and Name of the Rose, where they killed off Inquisitor Gui. Apparently neither screenwriter could be bothered to find out that these were actual people...) I want to find out something new, be able to look it up, and find out that the screewriter was right! (The Knight's Tale amazed me that way, full of (deliberate) flying purple anachronisms, yet these little tiny details that are dead right.)It ain't that hard to crack open a history book.The Auld Grump</blockquote>
