Several movies based on true stories talk about things that don't happen on a daily basis. For example
"Soul Surfer" when Bethany Hamilton played by AnnaSophia Robb is attacked by a shark while she was out surfing. Bethany tragically lost her arm but she was very lucky to have survived a shark attack. In my opinion this subject is relevant because they are real life experiences, people thrive on other peoples experiences and they find it interesting. These movies are based on the kinds of things that don't happen to everyone, that is why we find these movies interesting. It's also a learning experience, you can learn what life used to be like or how people live in different countries. We can also learn how certain situation effects someone's personality, their mental health and their way of life.
I honestly believe that when they make movies based on true events, it's because something crazy has happened or it's a story that will inspire other people. I might be about a subject that could help someone in the future or in the present. Could you imagine, losing your family or your friends? What if today was your last day on earth, would you do something different? "Honestly, I don't know." Life is a difficult subject not everyone will pass with flying colors, life isn't like a movie, you won't always get the perfect ending. That is why I find seeing movies that are based on true events takes us out of the dream of a perfect ending and it brings us back to reality where things don't always go the way we would like it to. Everything happens for a reason and we all have our own destination in life whether it's a great or a crazy experience, a sad experience or an experience that seems bad at first but gets better later. We just have to see where life takes us, but either way we are still in control, we make the decisions and we make the mistakes.
