Atun-Shei Films | The Top 10 Most Immersive Historical Movies of All Time @AtunSheiFilms | Uploaded May 2020 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
When talking about historical fiction films, historians and history buffs use the same two words over and over again: accuracy and authenticity. The first refers to strict adherence to historical fashion, customs, and events. The second is a little more nebulous, and refers more to how a historical movie "feels." I would use a more specific word: immersion. To me, a period piece succeeds if it's well made enough to – with a little imagination – transport you to a different time. In this video essay, I recommend ten movies that, in my opinion, accomplish just that.
