A biographical picture— often shortened to biopic— is a film that dramatizes the life of an actual person or persons. They differ from films “based on a true story” or “historic films” in that they attempt to comprehensively tell a person’s life story or at least the most historically important years of their lives.
Action movies comprise a genre of film which involve drama fueled by intense action. This can include fighting, stunts, car chases, explosions and the like. The action typically involves individual efforts on the part of the hero, as contrasted with war movies.
A film style is a recognizable group of conventions used by filmmakers to give specific meaning, or depth to their work. It can encompass every aspect of film; dialogue, cinematography, attitude (i.e., seriousness or lack thereof).
