TIL Florence Foster Jenkins (1868-1944) believed she was a great opera singer despite being completely tone-deaf. She performed in extravagant costumes, including tinsel wings, and dismissed laughter as jealousy. Her famous quote: “People may say I can’t sing, but no one can ever say I didn’t sing.”
The movie about her was absolutely phenomenal. I strongly encourage anyone interested in this stranger-than-fiction account to check it out.
Which one ?

The first one listed with Hugh Grant and Meryl Streep.
Huh, I was unaware of the other two, but only one is a movie; @[email protected] is correct!

Yes, I love biopics about interesting people. If I may offer another one, there is a lady on Youtube named Kaz Rowe, and a fella named Matt Baume who cover interesting historical figures. Matt Baume did a video on John Waters that I truly think improved my mental health, and Kaz Rowe did an awesome video on Eartha Kitt. I will post the links here.
