Throughout much of the 1990s and early 2000s, it was impossible to escape Anna Nicole Smith, the model-turned-reality-TV-star whose image, and pretty much every action, was plastered all over tabloid magazines and channels like the E! Network. Even though many think they know everything there was to know about the former Playboy cover model and pop culture sensation more than a half-decade after her shocking 2007 death, that’s far from the case.
The 2023 Netflix documentary film, Anna Nicole Smith: You Don’t Know Me, shows a side of the late star that has often been omitted from the history books to paint a more fully-realized picture of the woman who made news wherever she went.
