When you have surgery done in your put under general anesthesia is it true that they film the procedure?

Generally No: Unless there are special circumstances, video filming is not done in an operating room. Possibly in some laparoscopic or arthroscopic procedures, sometimes still photographs are taken of the surgical findings.
