        THE AVIATOR was breathtakingFUNNY GIRL and FUNNY LADY were very entertaining films, but as far as the facts regarding Fanny Brice's life, you're not going to find them in those movies.

                After watching that, I would need a strong antidote like The Naked Civil Servant.

                  I don't know about factual accuracy,but I absolutely adore THE HELEN MORGAN STORYsomething about that movie is imminently watchable. Ann Blythe's 2nd best role behind MILDRED PIERCE and Paul Newman was smoking hot.

                        Really want to see Patton, Last King of Scotland, and finish Ghandi (tragically didn't finish the film).
                        I can't think of a singular favourite biographical film of all time, so I'll list the ones who draw as the best.
                        In no order whatsoever,
                        Glory
                        Born on the Fourth of July
                        Goodfellas
                        The Untouchables

                          THE LAST KING OF SCOTLAND is not an easy watch, but the performances of Forest Whitaker and James McAvoy make it worth itthey are both spectacular.
