One of the most popular types of film in Cinema history is the Biopic. This genre dramatizes the life of a non-fictional person, usually a public or historical figure. The people depicted over the years in film vary from Kings and Queens from the middle ages to contemporary figures still alive today. The movies from their stories can be important reminders of people and events that shaped our history.

Regardless of whom the film focuses on, the classic elements of a Biopic tend to be the personal lives of the characters and the confrontation and obstacles that challenge their pursuits. The themes explored in these films often resonate throughout time. Biopics are a meaningful way to honor the lives and stories of people that should be remembered and recognized today.
