The accuracy of a story based on a true event really depends. Some stick closely to the facts, while others take inspiration and build a more fictional narrative around the core truth. It's all about the intent and style of the storyteller.
'Dopesick' is quite accurate. It's based on real events and real people's experiences, so it gives a fairly realistic portrayal of the opioid epidemic.
It's fairly accurate in terms of the major events. The sinking of the Titanic due to hitting an iceberg is real. Also, the fact that there were not enough lifeboats for all passengers is accurate.
The 'Conjuring' movies, which are based off true stories, have elements of truth in them. The real - life Warrens did encounter some strange and unexplained phenomena during their investigations. But in the movies, a lot of the scares are amplified for the movie - going audience. The movie makers add special effects and intensify the horror aspects. Still, it's interesting to see how they've taken real - life cases and turned them into these spooky movies.
The series 'Dirty John' based on a true story is quite accurate. It captures the essence of the relationship between Debra and John. It portrays John's manipulative ways and Debra's journey of discovery accurately. Of course, in the process of making a TV show, there are some added elements to make it more engaging, but overall, it's a good representation of the real - life events.
The 'Greatest Showman' is indeed based on a true story. It's loosely based on the life of P.T. Barnum. In real life, Barnum was a great showman who had a famous circus. The movie shows his journey from a poor boy to a successful circus owner. But it's not entirely accurate. For example, the way some of the characters interact and the timings of events are adjusted for the movie's narrative flow.
It can vary a lot. Sometimes it's very close to the real events, but other times it takes creative liberties for dramatic effect.

Well, some of the cases are quite accurate in terms of the general modus operandi of criminals. For example, serial killers often have certain patterns like targeting a specific type of victim. However, they also add a lot of fictional elements for the sake of drama.
Well, 'U 571' has a bit of a mixed bag when it comes to accuracy. On one hand, it does a great job of portraying the significance of the Enigma machine and the perils of submarine warfare. The movie shows the tense situations on board the U - boat and the race against time to get the valuable intelligence. But on the other hand, the misrepresentation of the nationality of the captors is a big drawback. In real life, the initial capture was by Polish and British forces. So, while it gives a general sense of the historical events, it should be taken with a grain of salt in terms of strict historical accuracy.
