Psychological Dramas can be horrific but Blonde was not a horror film

* {{Biopic}}: Aside from '' Killing Them Softly'' (a neo-noir crime film), all of his theatrical films directed so far are essentially biopics, although each of them noticeably puts their own spin on the genre: ''Chopper'' is based on the autobiographical writings of Australian criminal-turned-author Mark "Chopper" Read, and the film is ostensibly about the title character trying to justify his crimes (and enjoying the media attention he receives in the meantime); ''The Assassination of Jesse James'' is a {{Deconstruction}} of the James myth, as a man normally portrayed in folklore as a romantic Myth/RobinHood-esque AntiHero (noted in the title by how his death is treated as an "assassination" and Robert Ford, his killer, is called a "coward") is shown (much more accurately to history) as a cold, dangerous, paranoid, AxCrazy lunatic, while the normally-vilified Ford starts off with an unsettling hero-worship towards James, but gradually becomes disillusioned with — and eventually terrified of — the infamous outlaw; and ''Blonde'', even before its release, was noted to be "biographical fiction" rather than a straight biopic.
