AOC's Climate Documentary Gets Enormous Praise From Critics
(And Makes Less than $80 (Not a Typo) Per Screen It's Played On)

I can't believe that movie critics gave ecstatic reviews to a leftwing propaganda film that the public has no interest in.

That doesn't sound like the movie critics I know.

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's new climate change documentary debuted in movie theaters over the weekend, generating an abysmal $80 per theater.

The new film, "To the End," was filmed over four years and follows four young women, Cortez, activist Varshini Prakash, climate policy writer Rhiana Gunn-Wright, and political strategist Alexandra Rojas, as they attempt to pass sweeping climate change legislation in Congress.

The film currently boasts an 88% "fresh" critic score on Rotten Tomatoes and does not yet have an audience score.

"Representative Ocasio-Cortez offers the best onscreen antidote to despair -- she's funny, a canny political strategy," Teo Bugbee of The New York Times wrote.

"To the End is set to ignite more Americans to take action," RogertEbert.com's Nick Allen wrote in his review.

The documentary debuted on over 120 screens over the weekend but garnered less than $10,000 dollars across all theaters, coming in 33rd place overall for box office.


...

In 2020, a seven-minute film on The Green New Deal, narrated by Ocasio-Cortez and illustrated by Molly Crabapple, was nominated for an Emmy.

Of course it was.
