Christine

Christine (2016) is a biographical drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Antonio Campos with Rebecca Hall carrying nearly every scene. The film reconstructs the final months in the life of Florida TV reporter Christine Chubbuck, whose July 1974 broadcast ended on live air in a way that has never left the public memory.

Campos is not interested in the event itself. What he builds is the slow accumulation: a regional TV station in the middle of a shift toward sensationalism, a woman trying to carve out serious journalism in that environment, an unreturned feeling for a colleague, a life that keeps narrowing. Hall plays it with controlled exhaustion — you watch someone hold themselves together, badly, for a very long time.

Hard to watch, impossible to dismiss. The film offers no neat psychological verdict, just proximity to someone who needed a different outcome and didn't get one. Stream Christine (2016) online on iFILM.
