Curiosidades
Harriet Tubman really did experience visions as is depicted in the film. Many historians claim that this is likely due to a head injury she received in her youth.

Pifias
After the passage of the Fugitive Slave Act, William Still gives a speech saying that it allows slave catchers to seek slaves in any state in the Union. Slave catchers were already able to retrieve slaves from the North, due to a law passed decades earlier. The Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 expanded the powers available to slave catchers, including forcing Northern law enforcement to aid them, and weakened the protections available to those accused of being escaped slaves, such as previous requirements that a suspect's status as a slave had to be verified in a jury trial.

Citas
Harriet: [to Gideon, at gunpoint] You'll die right here. On a frozen, blood-soaked battlefield, the moans of a generation of young men in your ears, dying in agony around you, for a lost cause. For a vile and wicked idea! For the sin of slavery! Can you hear them? God don't mean people to own people, Gideon! Our time is near!

Extraordinary Woman...

An extraordinary film about an extraordinary woman who did some extraordinary things in extraordinary ways to make an extraordinary difference to the extraordinary people she helped and saved - absolutely extraordinary!

As with all biopics, they seldom present a verbatim account of the life of their subject, it's not a documentary after all. On this occasion forgivable, especially if it results in a wider audience and that audience goes on to explore further the life of this remarkable lady and shares their discovery with others.
