Some historians have been tempted to throw things at the screen--silver or small--when something appallingly inaccurate is shown as "fact" in a movie or tv program. So the picture of Dr. J. Allen Hynek and a gray alien in Mark O'Connell's piece didn't sit well, nor does the statement by the author of Mark's linked article about
Project Blue Book, that "The historical aspect of the series sets the show apart." And even much less the quote Mark reproduces "'We were pretty good about sticking with history,' declares the show's creator." We loved Aidan Gillen's "Littlefinger" character in
Game of Thrones; we're not so sure about his upcoming J. Allen Hynek. And neither is, we think, screenwriter and author of the Hynek biography
The Close Encounters Man O'Connell. (WM)
