"King Richard (Green, 2021)"
As someone who usually doesn't like celebrity biopics, I was really impressed by this. It's well-constructed, beautifully shot (Robert Elswit, put him on the DP Mount Rushmore), and finds room for some nice grace notes of complexity amidst the standard boilerplate biopic stuff. Smith, Ellis, the kids, all good performances. I'm a fan.
