I'm not sure I agree with this. As far as 2023 is concerned, Oppenheimer is an outstanding piece of filmmaking. The excellence of it, from a narrative perspective, is not so much what happens, but how it happens, and how it is told. That film alone is a fairly stern rebuke to your claims here.

Some biopics are indeed dull, especially those that resort to cliches like showing the real people in photographs or footage over the end credits. This worked brilliantly when it was first done in the deeply moving final scene in Schindler's List - with the actors alongside the real people laying stones on Schindler's grave in Israel - but everyone and their cat has copied this since. Enough.

However, I don't think your point about knowing the outcome is necessarily correct as a narrative criticism. Again, how a thing happens can be just as suspenseful. You could make the same accusation against any film based on a true story. The Great Escape, for instance, hardly loses entertainment value or cinematic prowess just because the outcome is well known. Even then, some people won't know the outcome and that is also true for biopics.

I will agree that some of the 2023 films you mention here are lacking (Ferrari, for instance, which is dramatically anaemic, Penelope Cruz notwithstanding, off the race track). However, there are many outstanding film biopics that I'd claim as great cinema. Off the top of my head: Lawrence of Arabia, Patton, Raging Bull, The Elephant Man, Gandhi, The Last Emperor, Gorrilas in the Mist, Born on the Fourth of July, My Left Foot, Goodfellas, Malcolm X, Wyatt Earp, Schindler's List, Ed Wood, Michael Collins, Shine, The Aviator, Capote, Walk the Line, The Last King of Scotland, Milk, The Social Network, and The Wolf of Wall Street. Biopic fatigue? Not a bit of it.

(I was going to say Amadeus, but that one is so speculative, I'm not sure it counts. Great film though.)

More recently, I was hugely impressed by Jackie, Steve Jobs, First Man, and Spencer (regarding the latter, it's all speculation of course, so possibly in the same category as Amadeus, but a brilliant piece of work). And yes, I thought Priscilla was terrific.

So sorry, on the whole, I disagree with you.
