But she also wants us to know, because she tells us, that she has remade the role of the First Lady. We see her talking about children’s screen time with Brigitte Macron – polished, in brown leather jacket – on Zoom. We see her face to face with Queen Rania of Jordan, about her special project, care for children in foster care, and they promise to work together. She gives, in the closing credits, an account of her achievements in the role: the banning of non consensual sexual images, the letter to President Putin that secured the release of kidnapped Ukrainian children, the release of that Israeli hostage (if only she’d met some Palestinians too, heaven knows what might have come from it); and the work for foster children. She’s done things, she wants us to know.
