Gabby Giffords Won’t Back Down Is A Documentary About Heroes In Civilians’ Clothing
A blazer. A brooch. A tie. Even an astronaut suit. These are just some of the items worn by Gabby Giffords and her husband, Mark Kelly.
At first glance, Giffords and Kelly are perhaps best described as a political power couple that have spent the last decade in the public eye, largely due to personal tragedy. But in the new documentary, “Gabby Giffords Won’t Back Down”, it becomes clear that they are also heroes in disguise - two individuals who have found joy in life and love despite all odds being stacked against them, and who have dedicated themselves to making Americans’ lives better every single day.
Halftime (The J.Lo Documentary): Why Netflix Could’ve Left More “On The Floor”
Jennifer Lopez was one of those people who always popped up in the most random of scenarios, whether as a reality show judge, an awards show performer, or, most often, as the face of the latest tabloid publication. Yet despite how often I encountered her, she was still never someone I paid much attention to – except when rewatching old dance recital videos where we danced to her hit, “Let’s Get Loud.” (Seriously, I don’t know what my studio’s obsession with the song was, but we danced to it a lot.)
Nomadland: A Study of Grief and Freedom
Nomadland, directed, written, and edited by newcomer Chloé Zhao, is a quiet study of grief, solitude, and the unspoken promises we make to ourselves and others. The film follows Fern (Frances McDormand), a recently unemployed widow, as she embarks on a solo expedition through the American west. She has no set destination, simply wandering from campsite to campsite, job to job, meeting eclectic yet oddly familiar characters; untethered nomads seeking temporary comfort in endless desert expanses, vast seaside cliffs, and each other.
