Former US President Barack Obama (62) has published a list of his favorite films of this year. Obama writes on Instagram that he is biased in the disaster thriller “Leave the World Behind”, the film biography “Rustin” and the music documentary “American Symphony” because he worked on each with his own production company, Higher Ground. “But these are actually three of the best films I’ve seen this year.”

In addition to his own projects, the ex-president also lists the historical drama “Oppenheimer”, the sports drama “Air” and the legal thriller “Anatomy of a Case” with German actress Sandra Hülser as his new favorite films.

In his post he also refers to the strike by Hollywood actors and screenwriters, which “led to important changes”.

Barack Obama, who, together with his wife Michelle, has been working with the streaming service Netflix since 2018, had already announced his reading list for this year a few days ago and announced that, “as always at this time of year”, he would also list his favorite music in addition to his favorite books and films want to introduce the year 2023.
