The storyline of any film is intertwined with life in one way or another. But some films are originally based on events that happened in reality. Here one should distinguish between documentaries and films based on real events.
Life through the eyes of a director
The documentary film aims to depict certain events with maximum accuracy. Such films are often not intended for the general audience, but for people who are keen on the subject of cinema. Films based on real events are based on a story that happened in life. But all events are shown as the director of the film sees fit. Some facts and points are omitted or slightly touched upon. Something is added by the director's fantasy. And what comes to the fore is what helps the director to convey to the viewer some key idea that should remain with the person even after the final credits.
How not to recall the film "Hachiko", which touched the hearts of even callous people. And those who are even a little inclined to sympathy shed tears when watching, regardless of their gender. But this film shows a true story that happened in Japan at the beginning of the last century.
And almost a century later, the film, based on this story, makes millions of people look around them and show once again warmth and care towards those who are near you.
Perseverance and reward
Many films are based on the stories of people who, in spite of everything, went towards their goals. Overcoming all sorts of obstacles of fate, these people achieved what they dreamed of for many years. Among these films, there are many biographical films that refer the viewer to famous figures. I remember films about athletes, boxers, businessmen.
The film "Ali" tells the story of the famous boxer, who first became known as Cassius Clay and later replaced him with Mohammed Ali. This film not only tells the success story of a famous person. The controversial moments of the biography are shown, the time when a person faced a choice and continued to defend his point of view no matter what. Another film dedicated to boxer Rubin Carter shows not only the path to success, but also how you can lose everything overnight. Despite his fame and determination, he finds himself defenseless against the erroneous triple murder charge. Also noteworthy is the story of his release in 1985, which also takes place with the help of a book written in prison.
If a difficult moment has come in your life, include one of these films. And, perhaps, in the morning you will get up with a new purpose!
The price of success
There is another category of instructive films that can be recommended for both the female and male audience. They are based on biographies of well-known personalities. There is little focus here on the path to success. The main story is about the difficulties that even successful and famous people face. One such film is Diana: A Love Story. One can argue about the veracity of the facts shown in this film. But it is undeniable that such a film will not leave in the heart of the viewer a single drop of envy for the success, wealth and capabilities of famous people. Watching a movie in this case will remind you once again: each medal has two sides. And if you really strive for something, remember that, having achieved the goal, the main thing is not to be disappointed.
Another good movie that falls into this category is Racing. It tells the story of two Formula 1 athletes. They are very different, but both strive towards the same goal: the championship cup. The goal is one, but what different destinies …
Many instructive films are based on the works of Daniela Steele. This list includes more than one film, the story of the heroes of which is based on real events.
While watching any film, think about what the director wanted to convey to you? And then from almost every film you can take not only a pleasant pastime, but also a little lesson for yourself. And maybe it will help you become a little more tolerant, wiser or more persistent.
