2018 Films: #10. RBG


Saturday May 19th in Chicago. Julie Cohen and Betsy West direct this documentary about the life and times of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. From her humble beginnings to her 1993 Supreme Court Nomination to her close friendship with Anton Scalia her newfound fame as a pop culture icon (sorry to rehash a tired cliche).

You'll learn just about everything there is know about Ginsburg through archival footage and interviews. I can't imagine that West and Cohen left a stone unturned while putting the film together. The film received an 94% Rotten Tomatoes rating. If you see one film about a Supreme Court Justice this year, RBG is the one to watch.
