Every December the former President releases his lists, sharing them on social media. This year was no exception as Barack highlighted some of his favourite movies from 2019. His movie list features plenty of talked-about favourites such as ‘Little Women’, ‘The Irishman’ and ‘Booksmart’.
The ex-President also showed how he is clearly a movie buff by including lesser-known titles such as ‘Diane’, World war II film ’Transit’ and crime epic ‘Birds of Passage’.
Many have spoken out about their anticipation of Barack’s list release.
Jay Ruttenberg, editor of the comedy journal ‘The Lowbrow Reader’, told NPR before the release: “I am very excited to see the president - or the former president's lists.

The editor claimed how it was “kind of impressive and very unusual for a former president".
He added: “Some people think it's frivolous, but I actually think it's showing that culture is important.”
