In no order apart from My Left Foot the film is just bloody amazing. Daniel Day Lewis performance blows me away every time not to mention the wonderful Brenda Fricker one of my all time favourite actress. Love humor and heartbreak its all here fanbloodytastic film.

My Left Foot / Christy Brown
Walk The Line / Johnny Cash
Control / Ian Curtis
Straight Outta Compton / N.W.A
Raging Bull / Jake Lamotta
Ed Wood / well erm Ed Wood
The Elephant Man / John Merrick
Hacksaw Ridge / Pfc. Desmond T. Doss
The Iceman / Richard Kuklinski
Chopper / Mark "Chopper" Read

Thanks to all who contributed a list of their favourite biopics. When I suggested it as a topic, I had no idea how many have been made over the last century and what a big and diverse subgenre of film it is.

This weeks topic doesn't really have a proper definition, with most sources agreeing that the action has to take place as part of a journey where the character(s) use transport, usually cars, motorcycles or buses, and the film is an exploration of what happens to them on that journey.
