Analysis
The film has a strong political gripping plot. Shirley was a pivotal figure in America's history, this is properly shown in the film. The lead actress Regina King does absolute justice to her role. But, the film lacks proper narration and character development. The characters fail to connect to the audience. The film focuses more on the events that curtail the important personality details from the characters. The film feels more like a summarized booklet of events rather than a touching biopic of such an influential politician like Shirley.

The film is based on real events and showcases the documentary of a strong and powerful leader. The film has captured many inspirational events of Shirley’s life and give a valuable insight to her story. The film is definitely a worthy watch and is inspiring to many.
