THE SCREENING ROOM
BY TOM SHONE
WHILE PRESIDENT Barack Obama decides on his future, pop culture has stepped in to give him the Mount Rushmore treatment. First we had Southside With You, a sweet, inoffensive Sundance hit about his and Michelle’s first date. Now we have Barry, Vikram Gandhi’s film for Netflix about Obama’s year as a transfer student at Columbia University. This is Obama: The Awakening.
