The Crown: Netflix series about the reign of Queen Elizabeth, broadly factual with lots of speculation on the details, so it should definitely be regarded as a fictionalized biopic. It's watchable TV at 80/100 on the X-ometer.
Jasper Mall on Amazon Prime: Charming documentary about a dying shopping mall in Jasper, AL, seen through the eyes of the head of maintenance and mall security. Featuring likable locals who work at the mall, shop there, or use it as a walking track/hangout. 88/100
I might look into Jasper Mall. My first job (well, technically my second) was at a dying mall.
My first couple years there, it wasn't exactly dying, but it did over the entire four years that I worked there. It's an interesting environment and experience. For the most part, it's depressing.
