Editor’s Choice: On the Basis of Sex

Authored by Sunday Edit

WANT TO WATCH: ON THE BASIS OF SEX

If your New Year’s resolution was to watch more movies and learn something about the history of gender discrimination in the U.S., The Sunday Edit votes for this movie.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg, affectionately known as RBG, is a pillar for women’s rights. Whether you agree with her politics or not, RBG has earned her spot on the Supreme Court tenfold. The Sunday Edit’s pick for the week is the new biopic, “On the Basis of Sex.” Written by her nephew, Daniel Stiepleman, and directed by Mimi Leder, “On the Basis of Sex” stars Felicity Jones as RBG herself. Not just a documentary about her life, but instead about one tax case, take a few hours of your day to learn a little more about what makes RBG iconic. For true fans, we also recommend you watch RBG, the documentary exploring Ginsburg’s exceptional life and career that was released last year.
