What did I like?
I did enjoy Rachel McAdams looking like a real person, even though she was doing the In Memoriam and it was actually very sad.
Yeah, and for Catherine O'Hara and she did a really good job.
But I did, you really do notice when somebody looks like a real person, you go, oh.
Oh, you still have your face.
The number one film on Netflix right now is a brand new documentary by Louis Theroux called Inside the Manosphere.
Yeah, a little soft, not very manly.
And I think you are with a lot of people who are turning away from this because it seems overwhelming.
I will say one thing that I particularly loved about it and didn't expect is it's funny.
It makes you laugh.
Louis, there's such clever devices in finding the humour and the irony in these men.
I laughed out loud several times in the first few minutes.
So that helps with the existential dread.
Yes, exactly.
So for those who aren't acquainted, Louis has been a journalist and a broadcaster for decades, and he does documentaries about extreme subcultures.
So from neo-Nazis to porn stars to Scientologists.
Serial killers.
Yep, all of them.
Now he's turned his attention to what he says is in some ways a bit of an amalgamation of several of those subcultures, which is the online world of the manosphere.
