I've not heard of this movie, I often wonder if some are disadvantaged as they have varies names in different countries

Elizabeth F Dorner

Memoirs of a Geisha

HappyFunJenn

Oh that was so kind! Thank you ❤️

Emily Rose

Marie Antoinette

Kim Magee

I am lol

Kim Magee

Is this similar to Marley and me? LOL

Kim Magee

Be careful. You have two suggestions. They may cancel this one out

Kim Magee

Found you. And you're right, it does fall under drama and I gave you a heart just because I haven't seen it. But why not?

Kim Magee

I Googled the movie and genre and one of the genres was drama

Kim Magee

Perfect storm I don't know. I'd put it down as drama

Kim Magee

It's great!

Kim Magee

The thing is with this story there is two sides and even though I can't say too much at the moment, I have heard some stuff that most likely some of it was true But I honestly think there is two different versions and then the truth

Kim Magee

Curious what your movie was because there was a lot that probably wouldn't have fit but he probably would

RuinFox

Ah my bad

Kim Magee

It's already suggested

Schmaster

Great escape 1963

Cindy

That's interesting. I have watched Goodfellas a couple of times and did not know until recently it is based on true events. Gives a whole different perspective watching it after knowing that information.

Cindy

I would love a Western genre. So many good movies like Silverado, Tombstone, Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid.

Jan T

That’s unfortunate. No one should feel they’ve been picked on here. ♥️

HappyFunJenn

It looks like most of us read it as an option between the three but someone still went out of their way to pick on my suggestion (seemingly only my suggestion) for not being a true story. Not very nice.

Gnaw Maker

American Sniper if it counts.

RuinFox

HappyFunJenn

Right. 'Drama'

PhoenixReturns

Awesome, i mustve missed it on the list, one of my favorite and most emotional movies ever ^^

Kaylee Smeaton

Tristan & Isolde.

Kaylee Smeaton

This.

Jan T

Silver Linings Playbook. Starring Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper. (A late suggestion due to the confusion over the wording of your post). That’s if this post means a choice between three different genres, Drama or Historical or True Story. If so you may as well have had a completely open poll, considering how wildly wide that choice can be considered, as shown by many of the suggestions. It’s disappointing that you ignored requests for clarification. Drama/Historical looked linked to quite a few of us, and would have made more sense.

Goldcrusty

It means "or". They don't mean "historical drama". They mean either one.

Goldcrusty

It's main category is a drama though

Anthony Ancona

Erin Brockovich

Sergey Art

Legends of the Fall

Cindy

Not historical or a true story

Cindy

My take on this is historical/drama-a film that takes place well in the past but does not need to be based on a true story. For example, I suggested Last of the Mohicans that is a drama based in 1757. Historical is technically any story that occurred in the past, however it generally means a past prior to your own personal history. A true story can be any film based on actual events, such as the excellent suggestions of The Impossible, or Spotlight.

Cindy

I LOVE this movie. I have rewatched it so many times and bought it on 4K. Never get tired of it.

I've allways seen the / to mean 'or' when written in text.

blorgins

My mistake!!!! so sorry

Sela

" / " is usually used to separate alternatives so I believe it's drama or historical

Very good movie

Annie Bonz

yesssss

Jan T

It’s a great movie. Very underrated unfortunately.

Chantsy93

Atonement (2007)

Jan T

It’s a very poorly written instruction, that’s confusing a lot of people. The Mods should really have clarified it by now.

Ezekiel rage

The Five Heartbeats (1991)

Angelina Sargent

Yeah for real this movie is pretty forked up considering how it actually happened.

Jan T

It’s exactly the same as when I wrote my comment. It’s still written Drama/Historical, which looks linked. Yet people are still reading it as drama or historical or true story. Three options instead of two. The confusion remains.

THE LAST GREAT

The Man from Earth (2007)

Kim Magee

There are mixed reports and stories and it's as true as many, besides it's also drama

Ezekiel rage

One can only hope, I suggested this for the July poll, damn good movie. Historical, drama and true story. Check check and check.

Lovaire Hawkins

Since I didn't suggest the right kind of movie, I want to suggest another movie. 42 (Chadwick Boseman)- 2013

ezza

The sting

HappyFunJenn

Respectfully, newer information has determined that the Blind Side actually isn't a true story. I won't say why as to not spoil if they do decide to watch. Still a good movie but definitely (unfortunately) far from true. I don't mean any disrespect 💙

will Hancock

The negotiator (1998)

Kim Magee

Already down below and killing it

Goldcrusty

already has been suggested

Queen Thalia the Graceful

The Prince of Egypt (1998)

Love this movie

Jorge Alberto Dominguez Reyes

A League of Their Own. A little bit of drama, historical in a extent, and a plus of comedy

Jan T

🙋‍♀️??? As someone else above asked, can we please have some clarification on the specific genre? Historical Drama OR True Story would be more specific. Some people are taking Drama/Historical or True Story to mean Drama OR Historical OR True Story. That’s a wildly wide category. Drama/Historical written that way looks linked to me.

Linda Cannarsa

I was going to suggest this!

Steven K

Black Mass

Gabriel

Still, they are all other genres more than drama. 3 of them are sci-fi and the other is a thriller

Gabriel

Come on 🙄🙄

Gabriel

Borderline sci-fi/fantasy, but I guess it could slip in as « drama » as well

Gabriel

It’s a true story…

Beware The Jabberwock

So, by this logic, everything that is sci-if/drama, or horror/drama qualifies? How is that any different than “suggest everything remotely related to drama?” I just asked for clarification because some of the suggestions are flat out REACHING. Thanks for adding the condescending last sentence. You win. 🙄

Gabriel

Based on a true psychotic break XD

Jan T

I think this should be clarified too. Historical drama or true story makes much more sense for a genre specific poll.

trlb

Rocketman, the Elton John biopic

Gabriel

Lawless (2012)

Jan T

Loved this one. Tom Hanks is terrific. He’s got great comic timing.

Beth

Philadelphia. I didn’t see it listed Tom Hanks Denzel Washington and many other great actors. Strictly drama

Jan T

This would have been my suggestion too. Brilliant film.

Jan T

Yes! Great film! Works on every level of the genres suggested.

Jan T

Loved this movie!

Angelina Sargent

I read it that way initially as well but the next sentence says it doesn't have to be ALL of them... which means if it was just 2 options they would have said "both" of them. So it's 3... basic reasoning ftw! Lol 😆

Peter Ceniceros

Great film

Jan T

Great suggestion!

Peter Ceniceros

This has been my favorite Western since I was a kid but it's also probably because it's one of the first Westerns I ever saw. 🙂

Ernie McCracken

Remember the titans

Beware The Jabberwock

It says “drama/historical and true.” It reads like they want a historical drama, or a true story - ? — some of these movies are flat out pure sci-fi or not even closely related to the topic?? 🤨 I think some of us here are sincerely hoping for less of what we get EVERY month. Sci-fi, blockbuster, and recent releases are getting repetitive. 🫤

Nelson Gonzalez

The Color Purple. Come on guys. This has to win. Historical and a drama. Oprah and Whoopi’s first movie.

King George II

Transformers 2 pleeaassseee

Jenny Lee Villanueva

I thought it said 3 genres and that it doesn't have to include all 3, but at least had to have one 🤷🏾‍♀️ at least what I took from it

Jenny Lee Villanueva

This post is to put 1 suggestion, related to the genre they posted and the most likes end in the polls

Daniel Minerva

Judas and the Black Messiah (2021) -sadly true story

Jenny Lee Villanueva

What Dreams May Come, Robin Williams. One of my favorite dramas in general and from him.
