'She's Done a Great Job' - Donald Trump Praises Melania's Film

Melania Trump earned 70% of the $40 million Amazon licensing deal for her documentary covering the 20 days before Trump's second inauguration.

  • At the White House screening on Thursday, President Donald Trump praised the film as `Glamorous, very glamorous` while attending with Melania Trump, First Lady and executive producer.
  • The documentary aims to show the 20 days before the inauguration from Melania Trump's perspective, who said `They will see how I work, who I am, how I communicate with people, and they will know me a little bit more`.
  • The $40 million deal and a huge ad campaign boosted the film's profile, with Amazon paying the fee, Melania Trump receiving 70 percent, and a $35 million campaign including a 25-theater simulcast for Thursday's premiere.
  • Critics note concerns about business access and family profit as billionaire Donald Trump has faced criticism that his family is profiting from deals tied to his presidency.
  • Promotional interviews this week emphasized the film's access, framing it as an 'unprecedented' glimpse while director Brett Ratner returns amid 2017 misconduct allegations.
