Mind-Blowing Films That Are Based on Real People

The King

In this reimagining of Shakespeare's Henriad tale, The King tells the story of Henry V (played by Tom Glynn-Carney) who is crowned king after both his father and brother die tragically. The film follows Henry V's baser desires, depicting the life of a man who took advantage of the king's ability to drink and canoodle with whomever he wanted, simply because he was a child when he had to accept the role.
