I mean, can you imagine the headlines that would be made? "Movie fanatics break into studio looking for lost footage; inadvertently burn down building." I bet Geraldo Rivera would show up...
Interviewer "...and you are damn lucky you didn't totally destroy the studio..." Me "oh yeah I thank my lucky stars...hey sorry about your building, man"
How about U571 whereby Hollywood has totally re-written history for a whole generation of kids who actually believe America captured the enigma decoder...
U-571 (film) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Directed by Jonathan Mostow Produced by Dino De Laurentiis
U-571 In the movie, a World War II German submarine is boarded in 1942 by disguised United States Navy submariners, seeking to capture its Enigma cipher machine.
The film's plot, though a work of fiction, is partly based on real events. It attracted criticism for two reasons: first, it was British personnel from HMS Bulldog who first captured a naval Enigma machine, from U-110 in the North Atlantic May 1941, before the United States entered the war.
