Discuss the role of Hollywood in teaching, or "misteaching" history. How is it useful? How can it be misleading?

Hi! :)

Hollywood's main life purpose is to entertain and generate revenue. To rely on them for education is a misguided notion, i.e.,- Depiction of Native Americans, Cowboys, people of color, immigrants, having man and dinosaur on the planet at the same time (never happened in reality), adding fiction to historic events.
