Review – Rita Moreno: Just a Girl Who Decided to Go for It

I’ve been a big fan of Rita Moreno going all the way back to watching her on The Electric Company when I was a kid. I still remember how delighted I was to discover that she’d had a whole career in movies before then (not to mention plenty of work since). This documentary shows her as a great person behind the scenes as well. Of course that makes it all the harder to learn about the systemic racism and sexual assault she was forced to deal with. But overall this is an upbeat account of a fascinating life. Worth seeing
