Director brings documentary on “The Notorious RBG” to Rhinebeck

The film RBG celebrates the achievement, endurance and unlikely cult status of US Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who, at 84, has become an unexpected pop-culture icon (“the notorious RBG”), racking up victories for gender equality since the early 1970s and writing brilliant dissenting opinions on important issues. The film’s co-director Julie Cohen will be on hand for a question-and-answer session when Upstate Films in Rhinebeck screens RBG this Sunday, May 20 at 1:30 p.m. Afterwards, there will be a reception at the Amsterdam in Rhinebeck.

Tickets cost $20 general admission, $18 for members. For tickets and additional information, visit https://upstatefilms.org. Upstate Films is located at 6415 Montgomery Street in Rhinebeck.
