The Netflix documentary by Ursula Macfarlane titled after the iconic Playboy model Anna Nicole Smith retells the strange and tragic story of her life. Smith was a Texas girl from a tough background that suffered accusations from her mother of concocting stories about abuse. The documentary uses a vast amount of existing interview footage, including what appears to be footage from Playboy TV. A more whimsical film would have imagined how the two men might have come across Smith’s image before their meeting, but the Netflix documentary reveals that Smith’s father tried to assault her. The documentary is an effective retelling of Anna Nicole Smith’s unfortunate life.
