In my (not so) humble opinion
- Schindler's List
- The Pianist
- Hotel Rwanda
- The Killing Fields
- The Counterfeiters
- Andrei Rublyov
- Joyeux Noël
- The Proposition
- The Secret of Kells (shockingly)
- The Revenant
- Grave of the Fireflies
- Good Night, Good Luck
- Ed Wood
- Cinderella Man
- Amadeus
Granted, I'm going for period pieces and stories based on significant, documented incidents or persons. But these are all the ones at the top of my head. We could bitch about historical accuracy (coughamadeuscough), but how rare are Hollywood movies accurate?
I'm also going to throw in "The Way Back" in there. It's a still good movie even though it's long been proven to be false.
Jordan Powell
Have you read The Revenant book? I read it to prepare for the movie and man did the movie disappoint afterwards. I felt as though the movie tried to make Hugh Glass too likeable. Giving him a native american son and giving up revenge to the Native Americans at the end of the movie felt so cheesy.

Some personal favorites on youtube
>First Kill (Psychology of War with Vietnam vets)
youtube.com
>Battle of Long Tan Documentary (extremely well produced doc about an Australian battle in Vietnam)
youtube.com
>Mein Krieg (German soldier-shot footage and interviews)
youtube.com
>Shooting War (combat cameramen)
youtube.com
Series
>Battlefield (BBC Series, several seasons, WW2 and Vietnam, older but one of the best such series ever made)
youtube.com
>Soviet Storm (18 episodes on the Eastern Front, Russian produced, relatively new)

There really isn't much record left on Glass other than he existed, worked for General Ashley, survived a bear mauling, and managed to walk 200 miles to safety. Other than that, most info. on him tend to be hearsay from the time that're likely embellished by this point.
>Giving him a native american son and giving up revenge to the Native Americans at the end of the movie felt so cheesy.
I've long come to expect sociopolitical shit like this from Iñárritu. It's still a good movie and groundbreaking in film making technique (even if the eventual product doesn't quite hold up).
Ayden Cooper
Holy shit, you're a pleb. The only good film in your list is Andrei Rublev, the rest is kike shit, and historically inaccurate.

Barely resembles the actual book Schindler's Ark, it paints him as a far more altruistic man than he was. And the book itself was rather shit.
