« Inspiré d’une vie » : le genre biopic en question
Définissant le biopic (film biographique/biographie filmée) comme la représentation de « la vie d’un personnage historique, passé ou présent », George F. Custen fait le constat que les stars et fransk artikel célébrités sont également des « figures historiques emblématiques » dont l’image publique peut interférer avec le discours historique véhiculé par ces films (Bio/Pics, How Hollywood Constructed Public History, ). Plus récemment, Ellen Cheshire a demandé si ce genre « calomnié et incompris » constitue un genre à part (Bio-Pics: A Life in Pictures, , p. 3).

In the larger sense, the biofilm1 can be understood to include biographical documentary films, where the actual personage is neither dramatized nor fictionalized, and the definition may be extended still further to the film “cameo” in all its variants – the more or less flitting apparition of an already famous celebrity in a film. The dividing line between the two styles is often blurred, as documentaries often make use of excerpts from fictionalized biopics, just as the latter sometimes include film archive sequences. In fact, whether in film or in print, every form of historiography, as Hayden White maintains, is bound to demonstrate some form of “fictionality”, be it only because it cannot avoid a degree of “emplotment”. White’s tropology may serve as one point of departure for this investigation of the place of bio
