–Edvard Munch (1974)
–The Freethinker (1994)
These are both by Peter Watkins. The Freethinker is about playwright/crazy man August Strindberg.
–Isadora Duncan, the Biggest Dancer in the World
–Dante's Inferno
–Always on Sunday
–The Debussy Film
These four are by Ken Russell and were made for television in the 60s. Dante's Inferno is about the painter Dante Gabriel Rossetti; Always on Sunday is about the painter Henri Rousseau.
–Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters (1985)
–Andrei Rublev (1966)
It is questionable how much Andrei Rublev can be considered a biopic when the details his life are almost completely unknown. But it is still a good movie.
–Ludwig (1973)
–Il Divo (2008)
–Communion (1989)

Edvard Munch! Wow! It's rated 8.4 on IMDB, and directed by Peter Watkings, one of my favorite directors. I'm going to put that on my to see list. Thanks for the heads up, Marcello!
That's one of the great things about movie chat boards. You're informed of really great films!

MAGA! FAFO!

Jennifer Jones was such a classic beauty!
I will see Song of Bernadette soon. I have it but have not seen it in spite of planning to watch it for years.
Have you seen
Portrait of Jennie
starring Jennifer Jones?

I don't know why I haven't gotten around to seeing that one, Nettie. God knows I've seen it offered many times on TCM channel… I will make a point to DVR it and watch it next time I see it in their schedule. Thanks for the reco, and thanks for stopping by.

I am not going to talk about all the biopics I have watched, but a really good one last year. "M.S Dhoni: The Untold Story", it showcases life of India's most successful cricket team caption Dhoni.
What I love about the movie is its screenplay, it makes you feel connected all the time.
