If you’re planning to watch Miss Americana and you’re on the West Coast, you might be up late enough to watch the 85-minute movie and still get some sleep before work or school the next day. It’ll be releasing pretty late in other parts of the continental U.S., though. If you’re in Hawaii or Alaska, you’ll have plenty of time to binge the documentary before you go to sleep.
