RBG: The Notorious Dissenter .

Cinematography: 8.131/10 The flow is good and simple for a documentary-interview style.

Costume Design: 8.491/10 This is a tough one. Did Ruth Bader Ginsberg dress herself? Shout out to her jabots: that's a strong fashion statement in her profession. .

Film Editing: 8.131/10 It's fine; getting from point A to B in a simple manner works well for the documentary-interview form here. .

Make-up and Hair-styling: 8.491/10 This is another tough one. I feel as though a person that really-really knows make up will notice any fine-subtle details concerning any facial make-up during her interview. Ruth Bader Ginsberg seems to always have a similar glow about her even while working out. Does her hair-style really change much either?

Sound Editing: 8.931/10 The voice overs are done well and ease transitioning from scene-to-scene. Plus, all the information in the presentation is set to keep the audience awake and the sounds really help (though the dude next to me does experience a spell of sleep). .

Visual Effects: - /10 I'm going not applicable here.

Story: 9.212/10 RBG has a really strong story all of which flows in connection with her interview. Shout out to Martin D. Ginsburg: the film memorializes the relationship between Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Martin D. Ginsburg in a way that truly honors his memory in accordance with her successes. He is a reason the film is so lively and interesting.

 .

Acting: 9.711/10 Most of the time, acting like a professional is most present and an important lesson of the film. Lessons of being honest and real are foremost as well. .

Personal: It's really interesting to see Ruth Bader Ginsburg living her life. Watching her perform in an opera is a joyful-surprising moment. Can you imagine her elation? Her exemplification of balance and commitment throughout her life is tremendously admirable. The notion of knowing and being thyself as well as experiencing with thyself is ever present throughout RBG. .

Overall: 8.728/10.
