Full documentary available on Hulu
I remember reading about this when it was going on. I’ll have to check out the documentary.
Same. It’s so much more bizarre and intense than I realized.
I watched this the other day and it’s pretty good. But I’m not sure what the point of having Fred Armisen dub the show clips was. All the interviews are in Japanese with subtitles, as they should be. Why didn’t they just subtitle the show? Baffling.
A large portion of people do not like to read things.
But they already have to read the subtitles for the interviews which are the bulk of the documentary, so people who don’t like subtitles are going to be turned off anyway. It’s a bizarre decision.
Real life Truman show.
Thanks for the recommendation. Nearly finished watching this. Absolute unfettered cruelty to the poor lad.
