What is the historical accuracy of Hotel Rwanda?

I am working on a research paper on the Hotel Rwanda film and I need some ideas and sources.


The movie is based on a true story and real events, but keep in mind the movie is a drama and not a defnite non-fiction documentary. Check out these links for info on accuracy:

What Paul Rusesabagina forgot to mention is that if you had no money you wouldnt enter the hotel mille collines and you know what was waiting for you on the outside. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/accuse_write?qid=1006042921304&kid=HYJuJDLBLllaKG8bNHTe&s=comm&date=2008-06-07+15%3A09%3A32&.crumb=

The general idea of the genocide occurring is pretty accurate, but I would avoid believing some of the events shown in the movie, just like any Hollywood movie; as the Rwandese government is actually questioning the validity of Paul Rusesebagina's( the guy whose story the movie is based on)claims of saving the victims of the genocide.
