Yes, this is a real thing. (h/t Glen Bradley)

(And did I type "Hagiographic" instead of "Geographic"? Why, yes. Yes, I did. I'm sorry! My mistake. I don't what got into me ...)

National Hagiographic Documentary Films: Fauci [bold emphasis added]:

With his signature blend of scientific acumen, candor and integrity, Dr. Anthony Fauci became America’s most unlikely cultural icon during COVID-19. A world-renowned infectious disease specialist and the longest-serving public health leader in Washington, D.C., he has valiantly overseen the U.S. response to 50 years’ worth of epidemics, including HIV/AIDS, SARS and Ebola. FAUCI is an unprecedented portrait of one of our most vital public servants, whose work saved millions while he faced threats from anonymous adversaries. Directed by Emmy winners John Hoffman (The Weight of the Nation, Sleepless in America) and Janet Tobias (Unseen Enemy), the film is executive produced by Academy Award winner Dan Cogan (Icarus) and two-time Academy Award nominee Liz Garbus (What Happened, Miss Simone?, The Farm: Angola, USA). The documentary features insights from President George W. Bush, Bill Gates, Bono, former U.S. Department of Health and Human Services secretary Sylvia Burwell, former national security advisor Susan Rice, National Institutes of Health director Dr. Francis Collins, former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention director Dr. Tom Frieden and key AIDS activists, plus Dr. Fauci’s family, friends and former patients.

Don't have Disney+, and don't plan on getting it in the future...

A new documentary on Anthony Fauci just dropped on Disney Plus—here's how to watch

If there’s one name that has become synonymous with COVID-19, it may be Dr. Anthony Fauci, America’s top infectious disease specialist. He has served under seven presidents, starting out as an advisor to Ronald Reagan, but only became a household name in 2020 due to his prominent role during the coronavirus pandemic.

If you've wanted to learn more about Fauci himself, Disney+ just released Fauci, a documentary film that chronicles Fauci’s career and his rise as a public figure over the past year and a half. The film, produced by National Geographic Documentary Films, premiered on the streaming service on Wednesday, October 6.
