Barack Obama shared his favorite movies and TV shows of 2019 in an end-of-the-year list, which included “everything from explorations of class dynamics and relationships, to an inspired reboot of a classic graphic novel, to a portal back to one of the most special places in history — an Aretha Franklin concert.”
The former president posted the list on social media on Sunday, after posting his favorite books of the year the day before. He also published a list of his favorite songs of the year.
His favorite movies were the following:
- American Factory (a film released by his production company, Higher Ground)
- Amazing Grace
- Apollo 11
- Ash Is Purest White
- Atlantics
- Birds of Passage
- Booksmart
- Diane
- The Farewell
- Ford v Ferrari
- The Irishman
- Just Mercy
- The Last Black Man in San Francisco
- Little Women
- Marriage Story
- Parasite
- The Souvenir
- Transit
He listed three TV shows that he considered to be “as powerful as movies.” Those were Fleabag: Season 2, Unbelievable and Watchmen.
