Short is not what I am looking for. Hint: the correct answer also involves things that transpired after their lifetimes. The childhood friend Exnihil never had.

You are in the right ballpark, but your score is a little bit off. "movies not about them" is slightly off the mark, but yet is also part of the answer. "Little Big Man" is not the film title in question (there's a reason I put it like that). The childhood friend Exnihil never had.
