From Hell (2001)

Corrected entry: This movie is filled with historical errors but I especially think the one at the end is the most striking: it ends making it seem like Gull went down in history as the definitive Whitechapel murderer. This couldn't be any further from the truth as we all know Jack the Ripper's identity was never known and almost none of the historians believe it had anything to do with Gull or the Royal Family.

Jeanne Perrotta

Correction: Actually several historians do believe that the killer was the Royal Family and that they orchestrated the whole thing. And since no one knows who the real killer was, can't the movie say it is whomever they wish?
