First Lady Melania Trump rang the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange Wednesday morning to prompt her new self-titled documentary "Melania." Amazon paid over $40 million for the rights and another $35 million for marketing and promotion. The film will be shown in 1,400 theaters. Advance ticket sales are said to be pretty weak. A private, black-tie screening was held at the White House last week,  but there were no advance screenings for critics.
