Like others said, I wonder if you feel this about other historical fiction as well, OP? Though as you knew people who lived through this time I guess it must be a lot closer to your heart.

But as it is, Anastasia is really just alternate history that use conspiracy theories (Anastasia survived) and how many Romanov impostors there has been (Wikipedia* lists 17, with 5 Anastasias) as it's basis. And, in my opinion, it also seems like the people behind the film has treated the culture and the story with a fair amount of respect, like how they allude to how the conditions were in Russia at the time and doesn't really romanticize it, and with the exception of Rasputin (I won't comment anything about the historical Rasputin here) every "real" person comes out of it in a good light.
