The Best Portrayals For Bio Pic Characters
Bio pics are basically biographical films. Bio pics are made about real life characters. These characters might be historical, political or from the world of music and arts. Bio pics are made on both characters who are dead or alive. It is very difficult to make biographical films because you are using the personal details of somebody's life.
It is even more difficult to cast an actor for the role of a bio pic. This actor must catch the vein of the real life character perfectly. However, some bio pics made on real life characters have made the portrayal of these characters immortal. For example, whenever we think of President Abraham Lincoln, we cannot help but think of Daniel Day Lewis. Similarly, Queen Elizabeth II has been deeply entrenched with Hilen Mirren's portrayal.
Today is Mark Zuxkerberg's birthday and he too has been played on the screen by Jesse Eisenberg in the movie The Social Network. Here is a recap of all the best portrayals of real life characters in bio pics.
