I couldn't believe the events in the movie happened as depicted, so I researched the subject enough to convince myself that this movie is not historically accurate but exaggerates the barbarity of the government actions against the church, attempts to make it appear that the Catholic church is the only group persecuted, and ignores that the church did not want religious freedom, but wanted the government to enforce Catholicism as the state religion.
There's enough injustice and suffering in the world; there's no need to lie or distort, except of course when you have your own agenda. And exaggerating and distorting event from almost 100 years ago to divide people now is especially contemptible.
Or course now I will be condemned as supporting the Mexican government's actions, which I don't, because of course if you disagree with a fanatic then you must be taking a position 180 degrees the opposite. So if I say this movie distorts, I must hate freedom. Fox news teaches us this.
Some people who think it's OK to lie and distort in support of their favorite cult and/or religion (sorry, I still don't know the difference) may be surprised at what they find when this veil passes away.
