    All biographic movies have actors that are more handsome than the real person. The real “Wolf of Wall Street” is nowhere similar to Leonardo DiCaprio.

      Yes, but does Elon deserve a more handsome depiction? I think not.

        I don’t think what he deserves would be worth any consideration. Movies are made to make money. To keep with my example, the “wolf” was a criminal and a personification of the “evil Wall Street banker” scamming people out of their savings. Yet nobody is saying he didn’t deserve to be played by a DiCaprio, everyone understands a movie is a movie.
