15 Movies that Ignore the Facts
5. Alpha Dog
Alpha Dog is based on the events involving Jesse James Hollywood, and stars Justin Timberlake, Bruce Willis, Anton Yelchin, and Emile Hirsh. The film was painstakingly research but, like all movies, gets a few things wrong. The extent of the role played by Jesse’s father in events has never been confirmed. No one really knows how much Jesse had to do with the eventual murder, and Jesse’s brother didn’t even know he was missing until after the murder took place.
