Over a 70+ year career, Rita Moreno defied both relentless racism and her humble upbringing to become a celebrated and beloved actor, one of the rare EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony) Award Winners of our time. Rita Moreno: Just a Girl Who Decided to Go for It illuminates the humor and the grace of Moreno, as well as lesser-known struggles faced on her path to stardom, including pernicious Hollywood sexism and abuse, a toxic relationship with Marlon Brando, and serious depression a year before she emerged an Oscar winner. Moreno’s talent and resilience triumphed over adversity as she broke barriers, fought for representation, and forged a path for new generations of artists.
