DOCUMENTARIES: Tickled / Sorry to Bother You
Competitive. Endurance. Tickling.

Then after the break, we talk about a breakout film from Boots Riley, Sorry to Bother You. It's weird, and funny, and then deadly serious, and then kind of a mess. It's got great performances and a wild concept that kind of falls apart at the end - but oh, boy is it fun to watch it fall apart...
