The North Star

[edit]

The 2015 independent film The North Star takes major liberties with "Big Ben" Jones's life story:

  • It has him escape from a plantation in Virginia, rather than William Anderson's plantation in York, Maryland.
  • It changes the year of his escape from 1833 to 1848.

In the press surrounding the film these inaccuracies are repeated over and over again as fact. Unfortunate and unnecessary. == BoringHistoryGuy (talk) 18:32, 23 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
