The former president’s cinematic picks showcased a blend of personal and Higher Ground, the production company he shares with Michelle Obama.

Films like “Rustin,” “Leave the World Behind,” and “American Symphony” made the cut as Obama highlighted their excellence, acknowledging his bias as a producer but affirming their merit.

Beyond personal preferences, Obama used the platform to acknowledge and celebrate the end of historic strikes within the Writers Guild of America and SAG-AFTRA.
