Review of RBG (2018) by Brent_Marchant — 07 May 2018

Despite a slight tendency to gush about its subject, this informative, briskly paced documentary presents an in-depth look at the public and private life of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Through interviews with Ginsburg, life-long friends, family members, peers and the politicians who helped shape her career, as well as a variety of archive footage and audio recordings, the film presents a balanced package of information that both enlightens and entertains.

What's most impressive, though, is the detailed chronicling of the influential (though not-often widely recognized) role that RBG played in the women's movement, particularly in the area of legally securing equal rights through a series of landmark Supreme Court rulings that she litigated before joining the bench.

For those who are unfamiliar with the accomplishments of this remarkable woman, this is must-see viewing.
