I can't answer this question because I don't know any movies that can compare to The Godfather and Once Upon a Time in America. These movies were all very successful gangster movies with high artistic value and influence. If you want to know more about it, you should check the relevant film research and film reviews for more comprehensive information.
One real story could be about a young girl named Malala. Once upon a time in Pakistan, she defied the Taliban's ban on girls' education. She was shot for her activism but survived. Her story is inspiring as she continued to fight for girls' right to education globally. It shows great courage and determination in the face of extreme adversity.
Once upon a time, there was a clumsy knight. He was so clumsy that when he tried to mount his horse, he always ended up falling on the other side. One day, he was going to a big jousting tournament. As he was approaching the field, his horse sneezed and he flew right off, landing in a pile of hay. Everyone around burst into laughter, but he just got up, dusted himself off, and said 'I meant to do that!' and continued on his way to the tournament, still managing to be the most entertaining knight there.
It's a modern take on the classic Cinderella story. A girl dreams of a better life and finds love despite the challenges she faces.
One popular 'Once a upon a time story' is 'Cinderella'. It's about a kind - hearted girl who is mistreated by her stepmother and stepsisters but eventually finds true love with the help of her fairy godmother. Another is 'Snow White', a beautiful princess who has to flee from her evil stepmother and finds refuge with the seven dwarfs. And 'Sleeping Beauty' is also well - known, where a princess is put into a deep sleep by a curse and is awakened by a prince's kiss.
One possible plot could be that Mulan, instead of joining the army as a man, is visited by a magical fairy who gives her the ability to transform into a man at will. This way, she can still protect her family and her village without having to completely hide her identity. She then uses this new power to outwit the invaders and becomes a hero not just for her physical strength but also for her unique magical gift.
Family relationships are a big theme. Some fanfics focus on the family dynamics between characters like the Charmings and their descendants. There are also fanfictions that revolve around the theme of identity. Characters in 'Once upon a time' often have complex identities, and fan writers like to dig deeper into how these identities are formed and how they can change over time.
Once upon a time, a family bought a new house. In the basement, there was a locked door. One night, the youngest son heard strange sounds coming from behind that door. He found the key and opened it. Inside, there was a dark room filled with old portraits. As he looked at them, the eyes in the portraits seemed to follow him. He quickly closed the door but could still hear the voices from the room.
A 'found family' trope is quite common. Characters who were alone or estranged in the show form a close - knit family in fanfiction. For instance, Henry might bring together different characters who then become his new family. Also, the 'hurt/comfort' trope, where a character is hurt (physically or emotionally) and another character comforts them, is frequently used in Once upon a Time fanfics.
Well, one way is to look at the historical events and figures depicted. For example, the Manson Family murders are a real - life event that the movie references. But the way the characters in the movie interact with this event is fictional. The movie takes real - life Hollywood of that time as a backdrop and then weaves fictional stories around it.
Yeah, it's a great watch. The story is charming and the acting is decent.
