Hollywood Swoons for ‘Fauci,’ ‘Mayor Pete’ Documentaries, Nominated for Five Critics Choice Awards

Documentaries about Dr. Anthony Fauci and U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg are building early Hollywood awards momentum, collectively garnering five nominations for the Critics Choice Documentary Awards — a bellwether of potentially bigger honors to come.

In both cases, Fauci and Buttigieg themselves could take home awards since they both received nominations in the category of “most compelling living subjects of a documentary.”

National Geographic’s Fauci earned a total three nominations, including nods in the categories “historical or biographical documentaries” and “science/nature documentaries.” The movie, which is currently steaming on Disney+, offers a largely hagiographic portrayal of Fauci, depicting the government official as a virtual saint with nary a flaw to speak of.

As Breitbart News reported, the movie earned almost unanimous praise from critics but failed to impress the general public, which blasted the filmmakers for their one-sided portrayal.

Amazon Studio’s Mayor Pete earned two nominations, including one for “political documentary.” The movie is set to be released in cinemas in November before streaming on Amazon Prime Video.

The movie follows Buttigieg’s ultimately unsuccessful campaign as the first openly gay presidential candidate. Reviews have faulted the filmmakers for their superficial take that reveals precious little about Buttigieg’s ideas or personal life.

The documentary comes as Buttigieg faces withering criticism for his lack of leadership amid the supply chain crisis that has resulted in empty store shelves across the country.

Some criticize Booty-Gig for taking 6 weeks paternity leave but any time a federal domo is not working it’s better for the USA.

I think on Rotten Tomatoes the Fauci flick is something like 98% rotten by the people.

So this prick is so busy with documentaries and In Style magazine layouts that he cant answer a basic question about natural immunity.

“The movie, which is currently steaming on Disney+...”

Freudian Slip?
I think not.

"What about Admiral Levine?"

Barack and Michelle Obama have partnered up with Netflix to produce, "multilayered content".

From https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/medical/dr-fauci-says-he-doesnt-have-a-firm-answer-if-natural-immunity-is-better-than-the-covid-19-vaccine/ar-AAOzheD

Fauci said on CNN last week that he’s unsure if people who were naturally infected with COVID-19 had a lower risk of contracting the virus compared to those who received the vaccine. “I don’t have a really firm answer for you on that. That’s something that we’re going to have to discuss regarding the durability of the response,” Fauci said. Fauci said it’s possible someone might be infected naturally and then not be as protected as long as someone who got the vaccine. “I think that is something that we need to sit down and discuss seriously,” he added.

18+ months in and this jerk hasn't even looked at this factor.

Dr. Fauci has surpassed Dr. Mengele as the deadliest doctor in history.

Why is he being celebrated?

The so-called “entertainment” industry is run by perverts.

They’ll be together in a threesome. But properly masked, of course.

I was thinking about it today.
It’s the most egregious woke BS in the history of America.
I’m convinced it was done to crush our spirits, and potentially make us snap.

Jeez… awards and critic reviews have largely lost all meaning and certainly are not indicative of actual merit. Barf!

With a little bit of license they could have had Mayor Pete and Fauci in a three-way relationship with Pete’s husband. Kinda like what they are doing with comic book superheroes.

I think they’re just revealing government to be a largely unnecessary joke.
