NOTE: A silly mistake I made in this video- the 7 Years War ended in 1763! For whatever reason I had the start date in my mind as the end date! Stanley Kubrick's 1975 film, "Barry Lyndon," is a cinematic masterpiece and one of my favourites in the genre. But in terms of historical accuracy, it's a pretty mixed bag. In some ways it's one of the most accurate and period-authentic films out there...but in other ways, it's as severely lacking as you might expect. In this video, I'll go over the historical accuracy of the most iconic battle scene from the film- Barry's first "skirmish" with the French during the Seven Years War. We'll talk about some of the best parts of the scene, some of the worst, and of course, we'll have some nitpicking as well!
