The Daily Routine Of Being Michelle Obama


For obvious reasons, Becoming doesn't focus heavily on the accomplishments of Barack Obama. In fact, the Netflix documentary is fundamentally about Michelle being her own woman - before her marriage and now. The book tour premise allows for various sequences that show Michelle conversing with young people she wants to inspire, along with behind-the-scenes clips that introduce her closest friends and companions. But when Becoming shifts to brief segment about Michelle's security detail, it becomes overtly clear that much of her day-to-day life didn't make the final cut. The Netflix documentary effectively demonstrates what she wants to accomplish moving forward, but there's not much footage that details the day-to-day grind of being Michelle Obama, whether it's as a mother, a wife, or as a world-famous woman.
