The fact that this story is based on actual events is very interesting indeed. Just remember, the premise is based on actual events of history, not the story. Whether or not this story is true matters not. The whole adventure is worth watching if you're a romantic or you enjoy a good old love story.
The idea that this could have been happening in those times is very believable. I never knew about this as being an actual occurrence until I saw the movie. What an education!
This is a great yarn if you make some allowances, so, if you don't take your history too serious, watch this movie.
