As seen in the trailer for “Judy Blume Forever,” the film is a celebration of Blume’s work over the decades. She’s probably best known for books such as “Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret,” “Blubber,” “Superfudge,” “Tiger Eyes,” and “Summer Sisters,” among many, many more. Not only are her books incredibly popular, even to this day, but Blume’s work has influenced generations of young women. The documentary is directed by Davina Pardo and Leah Wolchok. The film includes interviews with a variety of pop culture figures including Anna Konkle, Lena Dunham, Molly Ringwald, and Samantha Bee

We reviewed the film out of Sundance this year, and in our review, we said, “It really is a celebration of Judy Blume. There are tough subjects they cover, but you ultimately leave the movie feeling really touched by her work and the compassion she has for her readers and fans, even if you’ve never read her novels.”

“Judy Blume Forever” debuts on Prime Video on April 21. You can watch the trailer below.

Here’s the synopsis:

Generations of readers have found themselves in a Judy Blume book. Her name alone launches a flood of memories for anyone who’s gripped one of her many paperbacks. For decades, Blume’s radical honesty has comforted and captivated readers – and landed her at the center of controversy for her frankness about puberty and sex. Now the beloved American author candidly shares her own coming-of-age story.
