The claim of “Fake News” should first be applied to Hollywood as based on truth story really is based on a true sentence or even word. So many of the based on “A True Stories” have very little to do with the truth unless it comes in the color of green. For movies that put this little carrot in their poster have much more carrots and diamonds coming their way and nobody actually checks the validity of such a claim. “Allied” is another example where a 3rd hand account with no fact checking has moved this in the “based on true story” catalog. You can add 90% of horror movies to this category who want their viewers to believe that this really existed even if it’s just the title. “Based on a True Story” where the only truth is the story.
