Ruth Bader Ginsberg, the soft-spoken, steely-minded gal from Brooklyn, has become The Notorious RBG with mugs, T-shirts, socks, and now, a documentary sporting her image and initials.
How she became the champion of gender equality, both before and after she arrived at the highest court in the land, is only part of this winning doc. Viewers are also invited to meet the love of her life, her husband, who put her career before his. (What a man, what a man...Salt-N-Pepa.)
In appearances, women's rights champion Gloria Steinem calls Ginsberg a superhero and Kate McKinnon parodies her on SNL. There's serious stuff, too: the cases she brought before the Supreme Count as a lawyer and the ones she heard as one of the country's top judges.
As the woman in the lobby said, "You have to see this movie."
