MOVIES—John Hoffman and Janet Tobias' "Fauci" is the first big-screen documentary of the nation's top infectious disease expert and ubiquitous face of the COVID-19 pandemic. —It’s a funny quirk that one of the highest grossing documentaries ever belongs to Justin Bieber. “Justin Bieber: Never Say Never” made more than $73 million at the box office in 2011, a non-fiction total bested only by “Fahrenheit 9/11” and “March of the Penguins.” A lot has changed in the intervening decade for both Bieber and the movies. — Bieber isn't the only pop star trotting out a new documentary this week.

This week’s new entertainment releases feature music from Grammy-winning songwriter Natalie Hemby and two pop star documentaries — “Justin Bieber: Our World" and the concert film “Madonna: Madame X.”.

(AP Photo/Mark Humphrey)NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The five-year journey between albums for country singer Cam was an evolution in coming to grips with hard truths about a music industry that had left her a bit bruised but not broken. But two years ago, Cam decided to walk away from Sony Nashville’s imprint Arista citing different values, but remaining under Sony on the RCA Record label based in New York. The title track, a meticulously crafted country dance track, was co-written with acclaimed Swedish dance artist Avicii, whose real name was Tim Bergling. She knew what she was getting into when she heard Smith’s easily recognizable voice on the demo for “Happier For You,” a melancholic country song that fit well with Cam's aesthetic of moody and introspective country tunes.
