Jackie* (15)
(Odeon Leicester Square Studio)                            

(US/Fra/Chile 2016)

Widowed Jacqueline Kennedy invites a journalist to tell the true story as she wants her husband to be remembered.
Suffocating biopic of American's most glamorous First Lady (with only occasional recourse to President Kennedy himself), generally more Hello magazine than the incisive drama it cries out to be, although it has its moments. In spite of the star's usual poise and hard work, she is a little short for an authentic Jackie Kennedy.
