Films adapted from events that actually happened, and the specific problems that creates. Real events do not arrive with three-act structure, so every one of these films makes choices about compression, invention, and which participant becomes the protagonist. The reviews here take those choices seriously, because the gap between what occurred and what reached the screen is usually where the filmmaking lives. Biography, war history, crime, and courtroom drama all sit under this heading.
