Seberg (2019)

This story digs into the time that the FBI kept actress Jean Seberg under surveillance for her support of civil rights organizations like the Black Panthers. To her credit, she refuses to back down, but that doesn't mean that the constant scrutiny and personal attacks didn't take a horrible toll on her health.

Prior to this, the only thing I knew about Seberg was her haircut, but Kristen Stewart really brought her to life for me. She's dauntless, fragile and inspiring. The story, however, is a little too black and white and the crisis of conscious experienced by one of the agents felt too obviously manufactured.
