#and the dictatorship and eradication of political opponents and the tyranny of course

One thing that annoys/confuses me about biopics is that for some reason we always need to look at "heroes". Came from nothing, gained influence, faced hardships, prevailed and was a hero in the end. Why not focus more on how people are heroes until they get actual power, which then more or less slowly corrupts them? This has happened way more often in real life, is more historically accurate with most biographies anyway and makes for a much more interesting narrative too imho.
