MOVIE:
"Notorious", The Film vs.
The History
The Notorious B.I.G. (Christopher Wallace) is considered to be one of the most influential rappers of all-time.
His lyrics reflected on his struggle as a street hustler, his success as an artist, and his ever-present fear of
dying. Separate the facts from the fiction as we compare the 2009 biopic film Notorious with the real story of
the life and death of rapper Biggie Smalls. See side-by-side photos, watch videos, and get to know the real Notorious B.I.G.

What was the first true-story film produced and when was it?
I am writing a research paper on true-story movies and I can't find this information anywhere.
Thanks in advance.
