America the Beautiful Documentary Another documentary about beauty worth seeing There is another documentary about beauty that you have to see. It's called America the Beautiful - check it out at http://americathebeautifuldoc.com/. This documentary is an expose on how the beauty industry imposes ridiculous standards on our idea of female beauty. Particularly interesting is how it followed the story of a twelve year old model whose career ended just a few years later because she wasn't skinny enough. She was a size four. Now that's ridiculous. This film seems to help those with eating disorders and young women and teens trying to get a grasp of what's going on with beauty these days. It is making its last national tour, so check to see when it might be showing in a theater near you. |
