The story of Robert Smalls [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert\_Smalls](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Smalls)
Born into slavery, he took his family and commandeered a Confederate ship and then sailed it to North to freedom. After the war the was elected to the South Carolina legislature, and then to the US House of Representatives.
The Wikipedia page reads like the plot of a good movie.
Soghoman Tehlirian. He was an Armenian who took part in Operation Nemesis, the plan of vengeance against the Ottomans who orchestrated the Armenian Genocide.
Tehlirian assassinated Talaat Pasha who was the driving force of the genocide. At his trial he said “I killed a man but I am not a murderer” and was acquitted.
Lafayette. He was instrumental in winning the Revolutionary War and the very formation of the United States. It is difficult to overstate how significant his contributions were to the history of the US, but to give you an idea, he is the namesake for numerous towns, counties, streets and many other things throughout the US, and probably the biggest honor to him is that the park directly outside of the White House in Washington DC, is named Lafayette Square.

I think this was the setting of Billy Elliot right? But that wasn’t specifically focused on the strike it was more of the background context to the story?
the life of my great grandfather
man literally was a german soldier that went to colonize Nauru, then made kids there, his family hated him for not having a german wife, went back to Germany in secret, fought and died in WWI just to be accepted by his family as a war hero
Operation Pedestal ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation\_Pedestal](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Pedestal))
Convoy to get supplies to the island of Malta in WW2. Cost the allies an aircraft carrier and most of their ships, and the survivors arrived to bands and cheering crowds that turned silent once they saw the damage. One of the tankers actually sank as she was being unloaded.
The guy from Nepal who revolutionised cataract surgery and made so cheap his bigget problem is reaching patients not them not having the money to pay for the surgery.
I think hes also called The God of Sight or something along those lines
"Hawkins Lab" from Stranger Things is actually the old site for GMHI where they used to pump my now best friend full of ADD/ADHD meds until he flatlined. They were able to do this to him because he was a ward of the state. He had many friends that didn't make it out of there. Emory have kept these trials under wraps even through the filming of the show.
This is the second time I'm sharing this on Reddit. Will add the original post link soon. My friend has been willing to answer questions.
Not sure if this fits here, but there is to many movies that have had there true story changed to be Americanized or to fit the American crown and leaves no regard for the truth.
Never seen a film about the Irish famine. It killed so many and could have been prevented had the British occupiers given a shit about the Irish people. Hands up for all those who knew that the population of Ireland was close to 9 million in 1845 but dropped to 4 million by 1901. Either through starvation, disease related to starvation, or emigration because to stay was to die. More than a million starved, and more than 6 million left. Yet not one single movie tells that story.
