Raise Hell: The Life & Times of Molly Ivins (2019)

Unapologetically TexanWickedly funnyFiercely principled

Overview

Documentary

Molly Ivins was six feet of flame-haired Texas trouble. She was a prescient political journalist, best-selling author, and Bill of Rights warrior. She took no prisoners, leaving both sides of the aisle laughing and craving more of her razor-sharp wit. It's time to raise hell like Molly!

Archival footage woven like a love letter to irreverence.

Engel lets Molly speak—loud, crude, gloriously herself.

Best for:Solo: When you need to remember journalism once roared.·Friends: Post-dinner debate fuel with politically curious pals.·Rewatch: Her zingers hit harder the second time.
