Why Band of Brothers isn’t completely accurate.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT In 2001, Band of Brothers awed audiences with its dramatized depiction of the real-life Easy Company's journey from boot camp to the European Theater of World War II, however, despite the praise Band of Brothers has received, its creator Tom Hanks has said that it isn't actually as accurate as many believe it to be. Band of Brothers is a war miniseries based on a nonfiction book by Stephen A. Ambrose.
Tom Hanks' comment is quite surprising considering the fact that Band of Brothers is known for its historical accuracy. In Hollywood, it's not uncommon for war movies and series to overdramatize, and worse, add in scenarios that never would have happened in real life.
Tom Hanks Explained Why Band Of Brothers Wasn't Realistic Tom Hanks noted that Band of Brothers wasn't actually realistic after the premiere of the first episode. He had reached out to Major Richard Winters, a real WWII soldier whose story became central to Band of Brothers, and discussed the show's accuracy. Winters told Hanks that he wished for more authenticity. In particular, he said, "I wish that it would have been more authentic. I was hoping for an 80 percent solution.
Ultimately, what Hanks is saying in this quote is that, Band of Brothers is certainly more accurate than other World War II films and shows, however, it is almost impossible for it to be 100%, or even 80% as Winters suggested. He notes that, in Hollywood, accuracy is important, but not necessarily the end all be all. In this way, just being a tad more accurate than others can make a piece of content incredibly successful.
Why Band Of Brothers Is Still Great Although Band of Brothers makes mistakes in terms of historical accuracy, that doesn't make it a bad show. Band of Brothers documents and honors the real lives and stories of brave men, and brings awareness to an important time in history. More than that though, Band of Brothers is about humanity and how it can be effected during war. While it can certainly bring darkness into mens' lives, it also allows brotherhood and friendship to bloom.
