These examples are perfect examples of the philosophical idea of hyperealism. As actual footage of early society we can only rely on these reinactions for information. And as you nention, they’re not entirely truthful; nevertheless it’s all we have, and inevitably becomes the truth.

The 1933 Kong is my favorite film of all time. Even when I was young I knew that there were filmmakers like Denham, and that ilk of adventurer/cinema pioneer fascinated me. It was a romantic era that is lost in today's world. At 14, I became acquainted with Brownlow's dedication to film history via a 1981 issue of American Film on Abel Gance's Napoleon. That there is such a great story told by Brownlow in a book which was heretofore unknown to me makes this a must-read. Once again, thank you for giving me something new to explore!

Something to look for in OK Corral depictions which was verified by eyewitnesses is that Wyatt basically just stood there during the whole thing while everyone else was freaking out and he walked away unharmed after. Gunfights are weird, man.

"Valley of the Eagles" (1951) is a thriller based around National Geographic footage of Sami (Laplanders) using eagles to hunt wolves, and has a lot of footage, either real or recreated, of the annual Sami migration of their reindeer herds.

Fun Fact: Ruth Rose also, according to its credits, did the adaptation, continuity and dialogue for the 1935 film version of She! (Don't know why they didn't just credit her as the screenwriter, the only other writing credit is "Additional Dialogue by Dudley Nichols.")

Oh, plus, She stars the King Kong gates--another connection!

So, I thought Ruth Who? Then I wandered through IMDB, dug into Wikipedia and pulled out some of my old movie history books. That led me back into the career of Shoedsack and the next thing I know it's four hours later, I've got half a dozen books out from the shelves, watched Most Dangerous Game, Dr. Cyclops and Mighty Joe Young back to back to back. Thus proving once again that history can be dangerous to your days plans.
