Thank You, Mr. President: Helen Thomas at the White House

[Ava]

I saw this documentary last night. I already looked up to Helen Thomas, but this documentary about her career really made me admire her even more. Her interview for the film showed that she's still smart as a whip. If you haven't seen it already, then see it! It is only about 45 minutes long, and worth the 45 minutes spent.

Journalist Helen Thomas has covered nine presidents and her venerable career has earned her the moniker "The First Lady of the Press." Directed by award-winning filmmaker Rory Kennedy, this documentary profiles the iconic journalist who has held a front-row seat at White House press conferences for more than 60 years. In her 80s and as sharp as ever, Thomas sits down for a one-on-one interview in which she reflects on her career, the distinct personalities and foibles of the presidents she's covered, as well as some of the scandals that have rocked the White House over the years.
