What makes July 22 films based on true stories so impactful?

The fact that they are based on real events makes them impactful. We know that these things actually happened to real people, so it hits closer to home. For example, in 'The Impossible', which is based on a family's experience during the 2004 tsunami, we can't help but be moved by their real - life struggle and survival story.

Well, they are impactful because they show real events and real people's experiences. It's not just made - up stories. For instance, in 'Hacksaw Ridge', which is based on a true story, we see the real - life heroism of Desmond Doss. This makes the story more believable and the emotions more raw.

The lack of color in black or white films based on true stories can be very impactful. It strips away distractions and focuses the viewer's attention on the story and the emotions of the characters. For example, in '12 Angry Men', the black and white setting intensifies the claustrophobic feeling in the jury room and makes the moral and ethical debates more prominent.

Well, they are impactful because they show real events. People can relate to them more easily. For instance, in 'Sully', we see the real - life heroism of a pilot. It gives us a sense of what can be achieved in a crisis situation.

Polanski has a unique way of telling stories. He doesn't just present the facts but delves deep into the emotions of the characters. In 'Chinatown', the main character's journey through the web of mystery and corruption is not only about the events but also about his personal disillusionment, which makes the story more than just a recount of true events.

Well, in many cases they are. Take 'Gone Baby Gone'. Since it's based on truth, it gives a sense of authenticity. The audience can see the real - world implications and the consequences that real people faced in that situation. It's not just some fictional story, so it often has a deeper impact on the viewers' emotions and thoughts.

Well, for one, they humanize the real - life tragedies. For example, in 'Grave of the Fireflies', we see the individual faces of the victims of war, not just numbers. It makes the sad story more relatable and makes us feel more deeply for the characters.

In my opinion, 'Saving Private Ryan' is extremely impactful. The opening beach landing scene is so brutally realistic that it makes you feel like you are right there in the middle of the battle. It shows the horror and chaos of war in a very raw way.

One of the most impactful is 'The Blind Side'. It's based on the true story of Michael Oher, a homeless and traumatized boy who became an All - American football player with the help of a kind family. It shows the power of love and support in changing someone's life.

The authenticity of the story makes it impactful. It shows real - life situations of African - American maids in the 1960s. Their struggles were real, and the way they coped was inspiring.
