Review of Becoming (2020) by Gabrielanori — 11 Sep 2020

The movie presents moments of the former First Lady's life, Michelle Obama. It begins when she starts a new phase in her life, after living in the White House, trying to find herself again in a remarkable life in transition, also sharing with others, in the book and film, her intimate, fun, and difficult moments she lived during her life, showing how important was for young ladies see her representing them in a very important position.

After she went through prejudiced situations in life as a young woman to get a good education at Harvard and a job, Michelle met Barack Obama and they started a life together. The story tells about the moments they struggled during their marriage after having their daughters, and the eight years they served the US country in the White House.

In the film, it's possible to see behind the scenes of her 34-city tour book release, when she gets close to the community and they honestly share their own stories of life, with a healthy dose of motivational messaging about education in personal narratives.

When people reach success most of them change. Michelle after all apparently didn't, she kept her old friends and family even closer, always trying to be humble. Watching the movie and reading her book could make you feel wanting to make the world a better place to live, to inspire people and, to help others to see their potential.
