Then in 2016, Chubbuck’s haunting story resurfaced with renewed interest on the big screen where two powerful films revisited her final days.
Christine offers a dramatic, emotionally charged look at the ambitious reporter’s unraveling, while Kate Plays Christine takes a more experimental approach – a meta-style documentary that follows an actress preparing to portray the news host, blurring the lines between performance and reality.
“I just wish the people who were interested in Christine were interested in who she really was or helping people who find themselves in the same circumstance,” Greg shared with the Sun. “I choose not to see either of the two movies…There’s nothing glorious about suicide, or what it does to the people who loved the person.”
Please let us know what you think of what happened and then share this story so we can hear from others.
