Movie Review: 'He Named Me Malala'

Is the the powerful and inspiring He Named Me Malala also worthy of Oscar glory? Review by Matt Cummings The story behind the Pakistani 17-year-old Malala Yousafzai is inspiring in a way that's hard to find these days.

HE NAMED ME MALALA is an intimate portrait of Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Malala Yousafzai, who was targeted by the Taliban and severely wounded by a gunshot when returning home on her school bus in Pakistan’s Swat Valley. The then 15-year-old (she turned 18 this July) was singled out, along with her father, for advocating for girls’ education, and the attack on her sparked an outcry from supporters around the world.
