General Chuck Yeager.

He actually had a small part in the movie The Right Stuff himself, and was played by Sam Shepard in a limited role. It left me wanting more.

After reading his autobiography, YEAGER, years ago it became clear to me that a movie of his entire full life would be something well worth watching. He experienced so much and many on the edge events throughout life that just telling his story would leave a uninformed person to wonder if was fiction. If a movie ever does get made I just hope it is historically factual and reflects accurately his life.

What movie do you wish someone would make, about anything, that would be of interest to you?

I read Chuck Yeager's autobiography 15 or 20 years ago and I agree that he had a fascinating life. Even just his war years would make a great movie.

I'm always thinking that there should be a movie made about certain people, but I can't think of any of them right now. One will come to me... probably at 3:00 in the morning. :ROFLMAO:
 
I am a big sports fan and especially that of women's sports. Those teams like the USA Women's Hockey teams, USA Women's Soccer Teams, and USA Women's Basketball teams over the years have accomplished so much that there could be some sort of film that showcases those achievements of one or all of those teams.
 
I agree with all of the above; also a movie based on this book:

It's a fictionalized account of a real person, early 1900s Brooklyn bank robber Willie Sutton, very good. And by the same author of The Tender Bar (recent movie version available on Amazon Prime Video).
