Julie d'Aubigny: The Princess of the Opera
Julie d’Aubigny, also known as La Maupin and Mdsll Maupin, was a 17th century celebrity. She was bisexual, and a whirlwind of fencing, seduction, and arsony. I want a movie about her LIFE immediately. There are a few in French, but most of America doesn’t seem to know about her and that is ridiculous to me. So we’re changing that, as of right now.

A Murderess Affair: The Pirate Queen Cheng I Sao
If there is anyone who could be classified as "winning" at being a pirate, then I think it would definitely be Cheng I Sao. I'd love to see a movie about her life, because it was epic. She was the commander of an estimated 70,000 people, and she had the government completely under her control. This is the amazing and often unheard of life of the Pirate Queen Cheng I Sao.
