Rights and Responsibility
Filmmakers—Rights and Responsibility
In modern society, the film industry is regarded as the most worldly known, paid and used form of media of the 21st Century. Films are a great source of media to convey key concepts and messages to illustrate a main idea, one that’s ideal for the vast majority. Films are used to entertain, engage and to inform others of main issues, past or present events and main ideas. They can be based upon fiction or non-fiction. Since the filmmaking industry is such a prominent, huge money maker and very demanding, when making historical films, movie producers have to make critical decisions in how they produce their films. They need their films to be entertaining, something that will make money and has historical relevance imbedded into the movie. So, this is why the issue can occur with historical movies in the sense that these films have some historical inaccuracies or flaws.
