    I will enthusiastically second Bonnie and Clyde, even though there is a huge continuity error in the final shootout.

    I love it but factually, also, it is not historically accurate.
    I tried searching once for what is the most accurate biopic made but could not find the answer.
    Just for instance, the real Clyde was bisexual but they made him impotent in the movie. Go figure!

    So basically they wanted to alter everything having to do with all manner of bullets he might be shooting.
