Some Films Based on True Stories

Films based on true stories and real people, varying widely in terms of historical accuracy. Does not include documentaries, only films where actors portray real characters and events; I've tried to include as wide a range as possible (NB: apologies, but my list does not include the animated version of 'Anastasia' as it includes a talking bat, which is going a bit too far beyond the bounds of verisimilitude for my liking).
