It is based on a 1939 short story of the same name by James Thurber. See also La vie secrète de Walter Mitty (1947).
No. As the capital city of Greenland, Nuuk has a population of over 17,000 people. This is just a stereotypical joke made by the producers of the movie. And the city that they filmed the greenland scenes in were not in Greenland. The town depicted as Nuuk in the film was actually Stykkishólmur, Iceland on the Snæfellsnes peninsula.
The short story and this film are two very different things, and you can absorb one without disturbing your enjoyment of the other. The short story is a brief (a few pages) look from the perspective of a man who enjoys fantasizing. This movie places a similar (but not identical) man in a two-hour story as he reacts to an upheaval of his work situation and experiences a lot of growth.
