Best ever biopics

I was gonna post this too. If you liked Mesrine then try "Stander", same sort of thing.

I have a soft spot for biopics of the criminal sort, especially bank robbers because afterall the Bankers are a bunch of dirty crooks so why should'nt they be robbed. Wish I had the balls!

I'd second gandalf with his recommendation of Stander. Cracking little film.

I thought The Kennedy's was amazing.

I've seen it, I don't believe I was that fussed about it to be honest, well not as much as the Mesrine films anyway.

The Iron Lady,Meryl Streep is great as Margaret Thatcher.

Some interesting choices made so far, but just to mention something that hasn't been mentioned yet, I have to give a shout-out to the TV movie LIFE WITH JUDY GARLAND: ME AND MY SHADOW...astonishing Emmy-winning performance by Judy Davis is worth the price of admission alone.

Pride of the Yankees,Gary Cooper as baseball player Lou Gehrig.

Nice to see some love for STAR 80.

My favorite biopic is The Puppetmaster (1993) by Hou Hsiao-Hsien but i havent seen that many.

I'd go with
A beautiful mind
Aviator
Catch me if you can..maybe
