Faking Cancer – White Lie (2019)
As I watched David Fincher’s latest film, Mank, my main feeling was one of wanting to like the film more than I actually did. I mean, really, the film sounds like it was specifically made to appeal to me. It’s a film about the Golden Age of Hollywood, which is an era that has always […]
