Jackie is one of the best films to be released in cinema full stop. Natalie Portman gives the performance of her lifetime. A chilling, spine tingling portrayal of the First Lady, some moments induced me to tears she blew me away that much. An extremely realistic portrayal of the events that occurred, and the various camera angles made me feel incredibly claustrophobic which was unbelievably immersive. The entire film is shot in a completely different aspect ratio too, which was incredible to see as it gave me that old 60's type of feel to the film. Overall, Jackie is a certified masterpiece, unequivocally vocal, stunning performances and an orchestral score that will give you chills everywhere. Do not miss this.
