Worth (2020)
Kenneth Feinberg, an attorney in Washington DC, battles against cynicism, bureaucracy and politics to help the victims of 9/11 in the biographical drama Worth.
The impressive cast includes Oscar nominees Michael Keaton (Dopesick, The Founder, Spotlight), Stanley Tucci (The Lovely Bones, Big Night, Supernova), and Amy Ryan (Gone Baby Gone, Birdman), Emmy winner Tate Donovan (Argo, Rocketman), and Laura Benanti (Gossip Girl, The Gilded Age, Younger).
Worth has an 80% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with Guardian praising director Sara Colangelo (a Sundance Directing Award winner for The Kindergarten Teacher): “It’s all so human and messy and it’s refreshing to see a director that doesn’t shy away from such complexity, with Colangelo crafting a film that’s every bit as nuanced as the subject at hand.”
