"Historical Drama" Movies
In the simplest terms, a historical drama (also know has period drama, costume drama, or period piece) is a drama set in the past. What makes the subgenre a little more complicated is their relationships to the past. These films can be based real life people and / or real life events with at least an attempt at realism. On the other end of the spectrum, historical drams can be set in alternative history timelines with the time period merely being a backdrop to an original story. If the film focuses on a single person, then they should be in the Biographical Drama subgenre. If they pay particular attention to accuracy, then they fit under the Docudrama subgenre instead.
