claimed the portrayal of their loved one wasn't accurate. They said he wasn't estranged from his family as the film suggested, and he and Tony Vallelonga were merely acquaintances and never formed a strong friendship like the movie suggested. They also said the film leaned into the "White Savior" trope too much. I don't know about any of that...it could be they're right or it could be they don't like their loved one being portrayed as anything but perfect 🤔 I *do* know that I enjoyed the film very much and agree that the acting was top-notch...but I can also see how maybe it won the Oscar for best film less on the strength of the writing and the excellent acting and more on the importance of the subject and the feel good ending to a difficult story.
