Hi Leinana,
Here's a few things about film & history to look at, I know there's
another by Robert Rosenstone, but I just can't recall the title just
now. Also you'll find there was much debate about this issue in the
American Historical Review about 12(?) years ago. You've probably found
most of these already, but hope some of it is useful.
