History is like a play. play like history

I have always liked themes such as dynasty history, so I worked hard to find books on this subject to read. Of course, Alexandre Dumas' novels cannot truly reflect history, but they also vividly describe the situation at that time. Having seen the film adaptation, not only was shocked by this epic movie. Not only did it not obliterate the essence of the original work, but it more vividly described the conspiracy, utilitarianism, and perverted incestuous love of the Valois dynasty, and of course the love behind it and more profound things! In addition, I also feel a little bit, why there are few such classic historical films in our great country. Apart from destroying history one by one and misleading the audience, what have these directors and screenwriters done?
