I was never a big fan of Mark Twain's works, maybe because I'm a girl and Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn's adventures never struck me as being all that special, or maybe because I'm not from the south and the Mississippi River has never held any intrigue for me, but I enjoy this film, and I've seen it several times.
I don't know much about the accuracy of the events, and I couldn't tell you if the details are true or the publishing timeline is correct the way some of the other comments have mentioned, but every time I watch this movie I am distracted by one thing ... could it be that his wife actually called him Mark and not Sam?
