Best biography movie

well I really like Buddy Holly

The Agony and the Ecstasy, about Michaelangelo and the Sistine Chapel, with Charlton Heston was terrific.

Not to be reduntant (reduntant), but Lawrence of Arabia, of course, followed very closely by GoodFellas.

Gotta admit, I couldn't stick with 'Lawrence.'

Couldn't agree more.

FINALLY ME AND YOUSE AGREE ON SOMETHIN.......SOUND THE TRUMPETS

I thought of a great one--Seargent York (sp?) with Gary Cooper. Truly excellent.

I've never seen that one. What was it about

Sergeant York (1941) is the true story of Alvin York, a rural sharpshooter who became the greatest American field soldier war hero of WWI. The movie, like most biopics of the day of course, is pretty sugar-coated and corny despite being directed by the amazing Howard Hawks, but it is an interesting story just the same. Won Gary Cooper one of his two Best Actor Oscars (the other being High Noon). He won that year over Orson Welles as Charles Foster Kane.

sounds cool but i will probably never see it though

y wood u sae that

cause i will probably never have the time to be honest
