What year is The Beguiled set in?
Plot. Martha Farnsworth runs a girls school in Virginia during the Civil War. By 1864, almost all of the students, teachers, and enslaved persons have left.
Is The Beguiled based on a true story?
No, 'The Beguiled' is not based on a true story. As the period film is set against the backdrop of the Civil War with a wounded Corporal at its core, it is natural for anyone to wonder whether the narrative is inspired by actual events.
