Kinda reminds of how the writers of 'The Patriot' wanted to find an historical figure to base Mel Gibson's character on, but couldn't dig up a single real-life person who didn't have substantial skeletons in his closet; so they were forced to just fabricate the Benjamin Martin character.

But that character had significant "skeletons in the closet" because he massacred a bunch of natives


For whatever reason, the audience can more easily forgive wartime atrocities over the kind of real-life sins the writers wanted to avoid on their historical figure hunt (spousal / child beating, raping and abusing slaves, that sort of thing).

"Oh, everyone always known Hollywood is perverted, and if they were doing something really serious they'd get arrested."
