It seems that you are beating around the emotional appeal bush.
Can movies and books affect us emotionally? Yes.
Does that mean the movies and books are more than fictional? No.
Movies and books are supposed to contain that to which the audience can relate.
Just because a movie or book mentions a blue curtain which can also be found in reality does not mean that the entire movie or book is based on reality. Reality is dependent upon more than a simple element.
