Considering the subject, I'm surprised more people haven't said Buster Keaton. It may not be quite as dramatic, but I'd imagine it would be much more focused (his struggles with MGM and the advent of sound), and I'd still appreciate the chance to watch the rise and fall of The Great Stone Face. For my money, David Hyde Pierce would be perfect, except he's a bit too old now.
Going station to station is hunky dory but if the trip's low on creeps it can drive Alladin Sane. -

Charles Darwin: The 2009 movie Creation focussed too much on his relationship with his daughter and wife, which became boring after a a while. Also, the character based on T.H Huxley was treated with an incredible amount of disrespect. There's enough material in Darwin's life to create an HBO miniseries. I'd like to see a movie/series that show the genius behind Darwin's mind. Also, it should focus on the impact his theory has on society.
Albert Einstein: Same reason why I'd like to see a Darwin film. There's never been a movie about the greatest mind of the 20th century. I'd be interesting to see his reaction on the creation of the atomic bomb.
Frank Zappa: One of the most interesting entertainers ever. It could be partially based on his autobiography. There are tons of documentaries, books and interviews that tell us about his life but it'd be nice to see a film that sums up his 30-year career.
