Why we chose it

Natalie Portman is captivating in this remarkable, unusual biopic of the iconic Jackie Kennedy, which takes place during the days after her husband was murdered. Loss has never been so elegant, so exposed, nor so heartbreaking.

Synopsis

On November 22nd, 1963 John F. Kennedy was shot and killed; Jackie's iconic pink suit was splattered with her husband's blood. Her world was shattered, yet she had to do the unthinkable: comfort her two young children, plan the funeral and vacate the house she worked so hard to renovate. Jackie realized that the next three days would determine how history would record her husband's legacy and how it would portray her, the wife of the dead president of the USA.
