Louis Theroux: Forbidden America (2022)
Louis subtly exposes a bunch of children who can stand by their own views
The people in this getting offended about having their quotes and reflected back to them makes for one of the best LT documentary for a while. I'd have more respect for them if they just admitted what they believe. Louis' indignation is clear.
In the end the online donations roll and and we discover, it was about the money after all.
Good to see their fans have been able to follow a link to leave back reviews here.
The First Time (1969)
Unless you have nostalgia from seeing it at the time, best avoided
This was retitled You Don't Need Pyjamas At Rosie's. Rosie is my wife's name and she's had a poster of this on her wall for 20 years but had never seen the film. I managed to find a copy finally and we were excited to watch it.
Unfortunately it is very boring, with quite poor acting, unlikeable characters, and comes across as a tourist film for Niagara Falls. There isn't much plot, and a reveal at the end I thought was clear from the start.
Great nostalgia for those who were teens in 1969 but for everyone else, hard pass is recommended.
