‘Gabby Giffords Won’t Back Down’ Review: ‘RGB’ Directors Add Another Shero to Their Formidable Filmography of Impressive Women

Lisa Kennedy “Gabby Giffords Won’t Back Down” begins with the former Arizona representative placing flowers in memorial vases for victims of gun violence. With a voiceover rife with potent pauses, her cadence sounds for a moment like a spoken word poem. While her rhythm is indeed intentional and meaningful, it’s not out of a sense of artistry.

SXSW Review: ‘Gabby Giffords Won’t Back Down’: Inspiring Docu Of Heroic Congresswoman Fighting For Gun Control After Near Fatal Shooting

Having its premiere today at SXSW, this CNN Films theatrical documentary Gabby Giffords Won’t Back Down is a truly inspirational offering an almost verite kind of fly-on-the-wall account of what can only be termed as a comeback story like no other. In 2011 Giffords, an Arizona congresswoman and rising star in the Democratic party had the wind at her back with talk of possibly a Senate or Governor run in the future, even maybe a Presidential one. She was married to astronaut Mark Kelly, and was even looking at adding a new addtion to their family which included his two daughters from a previous marriage. Then it all came crashing down when at a campaign event, she and several others attending were felled by a gunman run amok. Several died that day including a 12 year old girl who was interested in civic studies and tagged along to the rally. Giffords herself took a single bullet to the head and was actually reported by media as having died. That report was erroneous and in fact doctors told Kelly that she likely would survive, but in what condition they couldn’t say.

Rachel Portman on Cooking Up a Souffle of a Score for Julia Child Documentary

Jon Burlingame editorOscar winner Rachel Portman (“Emma”) served up a delightful score for “Julia,” the documentary about cooking personality Julia Child from “RBG” filmmakers Betsy West and Julie Cohen.Curiously, the English composer had never seen Child’s public TV series “The French Chef” and, although she loves to cook, does not own Child’s classic book “Mastering the Art of French Cooking.”Portman, who recently received a lifetime achievement award from Germany’s SoundTrack Cologne, spoke with Variety about “Julia.”How did “Julia” come to you?It helped that I had written the music for “Chocolat” [Lasse Hallstrom’s 2000 film about a chocolatiere in 1959 France] – the whole thing about food, and music, and France.

How Julia Child changed America’s relationship to food (and PBS)

Julia, a delectable documentary about the improbably tall, enchantingly boisterous woman who, at 49, produced a groundbreaking cookbook that changed the course of America’s relationship to home cooking. We went from a nation of Jello molds bastardized with marshmallows and bland, frozen TV dinners to savory aspics and luscious boeuf bourguignon.“We’ve spoken to a lot of chefs, several generations after Julia, and it’s amazing how uniformly they revere Julia Child,” adds Cohen’s co-director Betsy West.
