The 15:17 to Paris | Based on a True Story (2018x44)

Air date: Dec 15, 2018

The 15:17 to Paris is ashewing for the most accurate movie of the year. This movie is incredible, but for one obvious reason. Clint Eastwood, the director, just straight up hired the actual people involved as actors. Yeah, the top billing for this movie are the actual main characters. They wrote a book together, so that might’ve been more of a basis, but they also always could give their own testimonials while filming. ------------------------------------------------------------ references: http://www.historyvshollywood.com/reelfaces/15-17-to-paris/ https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/movies/2018/02/07/how-accurate-heroic-terrorist-fight-clint-eastwood-15-17-paris/309706002/ https://www.metro.us/entertainment/movies/how-accurate-is-the-1517-to-paris https://www.bustle.com/p/how-accurate-is-the-1517-to-paris-theres-a-wild-reason-the-drama-feels-so-real-8124135 ------------------------------------------------------------ SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE VIDEOS: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=CynicalCypher88 Support the channel through Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/CynicalHistorian or pick up some merchandise at SpreadShirt: https://shop.spreadshirt.com/cynicalhistorian LET'S CONNECT: https://www.facebook.com/cynicalcypher88 https://discord.gg/Ukthk4U https://twitter.com/Cynical_History ------------------------------------------------------------ Wiki: The 15:17 to Paris is a 2018 American Action biographical drama film produced and directed by Clint Eastwood and written by Dorothy Blyskal, based on the autobiography The 15:17 to Paris: The True Story of a Terrorist, a Train, and Three American Heroes by Jeffrey E.
