Some feel that movies and tv shows are a good way to study history despite their lack of historical accuracy at times. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

After the advent of cinema and tv shows, it has become the prime engagement activity of everyone’s life. Many advocate that films are good resources to learn about the past despite the involvement of inaccurate
facts
 at times. I personally support the fact that movies and tv-shows are entertaining mediums to get to know about the past.
To begin
 with, the majority of
people
 find reading a monotonous task because it consumes so much time.
Furthermore
, sometimes
people
 do not feel connected with the writing and leave the topic in the middle.
Thus
, many directors have adopted the idea to make movies and tv shows based on history books and articles to aware
people
 of the historical
facts
as well as
 their financial benefits.
For instance
, Kashmir Files was a superhit movie and it covers the era of Kashmiri pandit’s genocide in Jammu and Kashmir state with some fiction incidents. After the release of the

movie everybody was talking about it and discussed the
facts
.
Furthermore
, the movie has the extra advantage of audio and visual effects. VFX and 3D effects offer an opportunity for viewers to feel the moment of that particular time,
this
 eventually helps the viewer to complete the story
instead
 of leaving it in the middle.
for instance
, Padmavat was the biggest hit of the year because of its VFX effects. The director builds the whole picture around the war between the Mughals and Rajputs which started because of the beauty of Queen Padmavati. Everyone praised the sacrifice of Padmavati
along with
 other females. That couldn’t be possible to understand by long lengthy textbooks.
To conclude
, sometimes makers of films and tv-show manipulate historical
facts
 to avoid chaos for their personal benefit, despite
this
 movies and tv-shows are great ways to learn about history in an entertaining way.
People
 can clear their doubts about history by reading about that particular incident
instead
 of reading about the whole era.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.
