.... but, yeah, what could've been a two hour documentary was just stretched out so much. This is the new orthodoxy for documentaries: instead of explaining something concisely with a well-written voice over, we have to sit through hours of tedious witness testimony to advance the story. If you work as a film editor at Netflix, the first thing they do is confiscate your scissors.
I'll take that rec for Ozark, thanks !
