movies about a real person aren't listed under that real person's filmography

I was interested in movies about Julius and Ethel Rosenberg. On Ethel Rosenberg's page (https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0742211/?ref_=hm_rvi_i_1) it does not show a popular movie about them, "Judgment: The Trial of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg" (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0391258/?ref_=hm_rvi_i_2). Perhaps there's not a category for fictionalized biopics under that person. Or perhaps this is a one-off mistake.

I LOVE IMDB!!!

Movies in which someone is portrayed or (as in this case) is the main focus of the title are not listed in the filmography section. Instead they can be added to the biography section as described on https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/names-biographical-data/biographical-data-guidelines/GMT9T242VQADZUQM (see “Portrayed in” and “Biographical movies”).

In your examples, the title can be added to the pages https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0742252/publicity/ and https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0742211/publicity/ via the “Edit page” button.

Hope this helps.
