Viewing Notes

Need to revisit a better presentation of this. Watched bc it was on sale from Radiance but wanted to see if it was worth buying. Undecided about that as it’s really not my type of dry dark humor but it is a fascinating movie just not one I would revisit other than to see a better version (hoopla only displays SD and the subtitles were all jacked up and mismatched).
