Context and what is known
Biographical drama may dramatize events, so courtroom history should be checked against public records rather than assumed true from cinema scenes.
Context behind the headline
A film based on a lawyer's career should be described as a dramatization unless particular scenes are supported by court records or first-hand sources. The real legal proceedings provide context, but cinematic dialogue and timelines may be condensed or invented. Reviews should separate verifiable history from choices made by the filmmakers and should not suggest that promotional claims have been independently established.
