1776 Film Critique When critiquing this movie I have to first begin with was it historically accurate‚ overall the film was quite accurate there were a few liberties taken. The reason for historical inaccuracies in 1776‚ comes from the fact that the Congress was held in secrecy and there are no contemporary records on the debate over the Declaration of Independence‚ the authors of the movie created the narrative based on later accounts and educated guesses‚ the need to invent scenes and dialogue
