The 10 most beautiful movies that are based on true stories

Lady Gaga in "House of Gucci"

Last year's blockbuster, Ridley Scott's House of Gucci, starring Lady Gaga, Adam Driver, Jared Leto, Jeremy Irons and Al Pacino, was based on a true story.

The film shows the events that led to Patrizia Reggiani being the instigator of the murder of her husband Maurizio Gucci, president of the fashion house in 1995.

True stories, which bring to light harrowing personal experiences or rediscover little-known parts of history, usually have a strong and participatory impact on the public. For if the imagination can build extraordinary and exciting new worlds, life can weave such incredible and disturbing plots precisely because they are true.

Here are the 10 best movies based on true stories that can be seen on Netflix.

"Rush" by Ron Howard

"Rush" is Ron Howard's cinematic challenge, which evokes Formula 1 of the 70s and the rivalry between Niki Lauda and James Hunt, played respectively by Daniel Brühl and Chris Hemsworth, the former introverted and rigorous in car tuning, the latter instinctive , reckless and feminine. The faithful reconstruction of that era relives the races of that era as if you were on the track. The horrific crash at the Nürburgring was unmistakable, in which Lauda was rescued and pulled out of the cockpit by the same oncoming drivers. 24 F1 cars of the time were used, plus various replicas and 16 cameras.

"Spotlight" by Tom McCarthy

A chilling true story is told by "Spotlight", which received awards in 2016 for the best film and the best screenplay. In 2001, an investigation by the Boston Globe's Spotlight investigative team documented the shocking scale of pedophile abuse committed by Boston Catholic clergy and the complicity of the Church in trying to cover it up.

"Captain Phillips" by Paul Greengrass

Starring a powerful Tom Hanks, the brave and sharp captain we all wish we had, the film tells the true story of the 2009 capture of the American container ship Maersk Alabama by a gang of Somali pirates.

Thrilling from start to finish, incredibly intense, "Captain Phillips" is suitable for those more accustomed to action films.

"Rose Island" by Sydney Sibilia

It's a movie that was talked about, but it has the great merit of introducing us to a true story that most people ignored. A visionary and brilliant idea: in the 1960s, the daring Bolognese engineer Giorgio Rosa (played by Elio Germano) designed and built a micro-nation off the waters of Rimini, outside the territorial waters. An independent state in the middle of the sea, equipped with its own language, currency and flag. It took a military attack by Republican Italy to abolish it.

"The King's Speech" by Tom Hooper

Even sovereigns have their weaknesses and emotional difficulties. This is the case of the future King George VI, the father of the current Queen of the United Kingdom, who suffered from a noticeable stammer, a rather embarrassing problem for a ruler whose duties include giving speeches to his subjects. Colin Firth plays him with sensitivity and skill. He has grabbed 4 Oscars: Best Film, Director, Actor, Original Screenplay.

"The Walk" by Robert Zemeckis

"The Walk" is the story of a dream and a society that deserves to be remembered and relived. While the Twin Towers were still in place, on August 7, 1974, the day before President Nixon resigned, French artist Philippe Petit surprised New York by walking a steel rope stretched between the two towers of the World Trade Center. An amazing hike over 400 meters high.

"The Trial of the Chicago 7" by Aaron Sorkin

Unfortunately it is a true story, a shameful failure of the American judicial system. The film traces the injustices and insults committed during the trial of the so-called "Chicago Seven", a group of activists against the Vietnam War. In 1969, seven people were charged by the federal government with conspiracy after protests at the 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago.

Sorkin (Oscar winner for screenplay) plots brilliant and explosive dialogue.

"A beautiful mind" by Ron Howard

Ron Howard again, for a human drama inspired by the life of Nobel laureate John Forbes Nash Jr., played by Russell Crowe with great psychological complexity. In mathematics, from the heights of fame to the depths of hallucination, Nash has experienced it all.

It won four Oscars: Best Picture, Best Director, Original Screenplay, Best Supporting Actress for Jennifer Connelly, as Nash's girlfriend.

"Dunkirk" by Christopher Nolan

Thousands of young soldiers, British and Allied troops surrounded by enemy forces, waiting there on a French beach. The "miracle" of Dunkirk, 1940, in a visual and emotional spectacle that judges, divides and recomposes time, between land, sky and sea, a war film unlike any other war film.

"Diaz – Don't Clean Up This Blood" by Daniele Vicari

A movie that is a punch in the stomach. Brutal and powerful, it recreates the violent police repression against demonstrators hosted at the Diaz Pascoli school in Genoa during the 2001 G8 summit.

He doesn't dwell too much on individual characters, but on the wave of inhumanity that leaves everyone stunned.
