We came across "Hannah Arendt" on Kanopy because our local library is switching to a different service July 1, and we didn't want to miss anything that looked good. Someone had recommended the film to my wife.

Definitely a strong performance that makes you think and taught me a lot about someone I had only heard of before.

I also tried to rewatch "Chaplin" there but found it less engaging than I recalled.

HANNAH ARENDT is a portrait of the genius that shook the world with her discovery of “the banality of evil.” After she attends the Nazi Adolf Eichmann’s trial in Jerusalem, Arendt dares to write about the Holocaust in terms no one has ever heard before. Her work instantly provokes a furious scandal, and Arendt stands strong as she is attacked by friends and foes alike. But as the German-Jewish émigré also struggles to suppress her own painful associations with the past, the film exposes her beguiling blend of arrogance and vulnerability — revealing a soul defined and derailed by exile.
