To name a work is a delicate art: it has to capture the essence of the work ([[WordSaladTitle at least most of the times]]) and do justice to the content. With {{biopic}}s and other biographical works, this is slightly trickier since a real person's life rarely follows a particular, simplistic theme that eases the process of naming.
