A project to capture Geni profiles from movies that were based on their life story. When you add to project, please also index it, and tag the actor who portrayed.
Reality has always exceeded fantasy. If many astounding stories have already undoubtedly been able to happen (even if not so excellently told), no one can yet imagine what else someone will do.
