Movies I Wish Existed

I would very much love to explore some of these ideas via movies, possibly when and if AI becomes more advanced.

1. A genius who lives and dies in cotton fields and sweatshops. Or might be interesting to explore a character who the audience might have heard of e.g. Srinivasa Ramanujan or Jagadish Chandra Bose or Marie Curie. Or maybe follow a timeline where a scientist fleeing persecution e.g. Lise Meitner is unable to escape and the world is collectively so much poorer for it. I recently learned that 50% of Nobel laureates have fathers in the 95%+ income percentile and 62% of Nobel laureates have fathers in the 95%+ education percentile. A movie where these winners accidentally get swapped at birth could also be worth exploring.

2. A coming of age story in Karachi during the 2000s when MQM ruled supreme. A Narcos-esque tale of gangs, violence, and death but the focus is not just on the linchpins but a young group of friends who are trying to have a normal childhood.

3. A movie where you really love the main character but severely dislike their love interest. But then a sequel which follows their love interest's life before they met the main character and you get to see them for who they are, making things a lot more complicated. Could be in the backdrop of some great sacrifice or historical event.

4. The rise and fall of the British Empire but with Social Media.

5. This is more of a documentary but I wish a generational company would just hire a videographer to film around the office and then release a movie 20 years later. Subpoena emails and interviews only tell so much. A couple decades ago, this would have been Google. Selfishly, now I would love to see OpenAI and Anthropic here. Something like the DeepMind AlphaGo documentary but for everything released. Not flashy polished marketing videos but genuine office day to day.
