Only the most loyal of Bell buffs need apply, everyone else would be better off sticking to her Wikipedia entry.
This lively production, scored to the rhythms of throbbing table drums, serving up her sharp, sly criticism of the misogynistic attitudes of her male counterparts, reaches too far, presenting her as a sort of proto-Wonder Woman. But not very much too far.
The result is something that feels fresh and modern.
In an age of a rebooted "Wonder Woman," Bell is the real thing, intrepid, fierce and smart.
It provides a sturdy, often exhilarating bridge between the present and a past that not only isn't distant, but isn't even really past.
A carefully researched documentary that uses an extraordinary wealth of appealing archival footage accompanied by Tilda Swinton's voiceover as Bell.
