Changeling (2008)

Clint Eastwood's take on the story of a missing boy and the corrupt police department that refused to look for him is a reasonably true dramatization of what happened to Christine Collins in 1928. Collins reported her 9-year-old son missing in March. Five months later, the LAPD claimed to have found him. When Collins was presented with a runaway pretending to be her son, Walter, the LAPD refused to admit the mistake and instead suggested she "try the boy out." After being forced to take the boy home with her, Collins returned with support from friends to expose the LAPD for what they had done. Tragically, Walter was never found and is widely believed to have been a victim of the "Wineville Chicken Murders."

21 (2008)

Okay, so this one is very looselybased on a true story — but the MIT Blackjack Team was a real thing. The practice of "counting cards" in an effort to beat casinos (essentially attempting to take the gamble out of gambling via the science of probability) was developed throughout the 20th century and ultimately mastered by a group of students from Boston in the '90s. For more than 15 years, the MIT Blackjack Team traveled the world earning a fortune by card counting. However, according to former team members, the film's depictions of violence, lavish partying, and, specifically, money laundering through strippers is entirely untrue.

The Exorcist (1973)

This iconic supernatural horror flick was based off William Peter Blatty's book of the same name. It dramatized the 1949 exorcism of a young boy known by the pseudonyms "Roland Doe" and "Robbie Manheim."

The famous "Exorcist stairs" are still frequented by pedestrians near Georgetown's waterfront.
