Thomas Flight had a really good (spoiler free) take on this, I think, arguing that YCSE is a documentary, in part, about the subjectivity of documentaries, inherent to the art form. youtu.be/-H0iFbaZdAs?...

it's like saying it's not a drama because you didn't cry at the end that's not what that means. That's not what anything means.

F for Fake should be required screening at the high school level

sentence them to kino-eye

Do they not understand that EVERY method of factual dissemination, including scientific papers and world record books, involve some amount of bias, storytelling, curation and framing???

I was JUST telling my roommate who talking heads docs and completely skewed our sense of what’s docs can be. Modern audiences need to watch more cinema verite esque documentaries

My first thought leaving the theater as a clinician was "theres a sociopath, a borderline, and an autist circling one another in this film and its not entirely obvious which is which for most of the film."

kinda, yea

He's autistic, not a sociopath Like, that's glaringly obvious to anyone with any experience or knowledge in neurodivergent psychology or behaviors.

Herzog can do no wrong. lol

Also define “accurately portray the facts.”
