Biopics are always popular (if often controversial) and recently, so many have had them made about them that I wonder if there's anyone left who hasn't.
At the risk of having missed a smaller production than Spielberg's Lincoln, or the one about the Queen, or even the Damned United one about Brian Clough, are there any people you've never seen one made for/about that you'd like to see?
I've always thought Mark McCormack must have had a fascinating life. He was Arnold Palmer's lawyer, and effectively invented the modern understanding of sports agents and advertising via his company IMG. Not only that, he was instrumental in making tennis "Open" and is credited with the concept of the modern "Grand Slam" in professional golf. The peripheral figures in his life alone - in particular Arnie, Jack and Gary - would be fascinating studies, placed back in their 60s personas.
