Essential documentary for anyone seeking to understand the political transformations in Brazil since 2013. With a detailed approach, the film traces the trajectory of the June protests, from their origins as a heterogeneous movement to their capture by different political forces. It delves into the consequences of these protests, covering the economic crisis, Dilma Rousseff's impeachment, Operation Car Wash, and the rise of the new right.

Although it has a left-leaning ideological perspective, the documentary does not silence other political views. Figures like Marcos Lisboa and Samuel Pessôa present arguments about the PT's economic policy mistakes, while Dilma's impeachment is analyzed from multiple perspectives, including the critical view of Maria Rita Kehl and the legal defense by José Eduardo Cardozo. The film also explores how the media shaped public debate and how the fragmentation of information on social media intensified political polarization.

Beyond economic disputes, The Month That Didn't End examines the role of political identities in the 2010s, with the rise of both leftist and right-wing movements. The radicalization of the new right and the influence of Olavo de Carvalho are contextualized within the growth of anti-PT sentiment and distrust in institutions. The documentary addresses Operation Car Wash from a "lawfare" perspective, questioning Sérgio Moro's partiality and the implications of The Intercept's leaks, while still acknowledging the systemic corruption that led to the investigations.

Despite some biased readings and a neutrality attempt that sometimes weakens its narrative, the documentary provides a broad and well-documented panorama. By connecting the events of 2013 to Jair Bolsonaro's rise, the film illustrates how the political collapse of the past decade reshaped contemporary Brazil. A provocative and indispensable work for understanding the country today.

After experiencing Peter Jackson's Get Back I had high hopes when this documentary was announced and although it's not bad it's not great either. How many current big artists could've given interviews? No big names, a lot of unknown people giving their take on The Beatles' first visit to the U. S. The 2004 documentary "The Beatles: The First U. S Visit" already covered everything this documentary is covering and more.

Maybe this is was just a way to introduce a younger audience to The Beatles. There's nothing really new here for longtime fans. It's a pity, they could have made a brilliant documentary.

Someone on Instagram told me about this new series and I wasn't even e aware that it was on Paramount+.

The idea of having Geddy Lee interview bass players is awesome. He has a great personality and vast knowledge about bass and music. And since he's massively famous like the people he's interviewing they seem to be more comfortable than in a straightforward interview made by not so famous interviewers. He's also funny, witty and endearing. We get to see other aspects of the bass players lives. It's wonderfully shot and directed by Sam Dunn.

The show is great! It just needs to be a little longer. Twenty minutes isn't enough.
