A preliminary but confident rating as I think that this might be a valid addition to my two hundred 5/5 rated films (ever), out of the 7,000 or so that I've seen. A deeply psychologically complex masterwork of pure cinema & introspective emotion from the king of contemporary comedy. Hands down one of the very best movies of the year.

Nathan Fielder is the new Abbas Kiarostami. A masterwork of reflexivity, questioning the lengths of performance vs persona, and how the manipulative nature of it effects the people and their surroundings it's played upon.

Who would have thought the most poignant moment of the year would be in the same episode as a Bill Gates impersonator singing "ding dong Daddy" and spending a good chunk of Comedy Central's budget on escorts.

This is the best movie of the year and letterboxd is probably gonna remove this because it's ran by stupid nerds

wow this catfish special is WILD! only thing is, nev looks great but max aged horribly :/

the classic old white person move is getting you to sympathize with them for like an hour and then SURPRISE! they’re a trump supporter

"The main thing about age progression is the gravity. What makes people age is gravity. If there were no gravity-for instance, if we all lived in outer space, AS WE WILL ONE DAY, your face would never change. You'd always look like how you look right now."

This man, like any man traveling with two identical printers, is right.

"Are rising rates of unhappiness contributing to the sex recession? Almost certainly. But mightn’t a decline in sex and intimacy also be leading to unhappiness?...A fulfilling sex life is not necessary for a good life, of course, but lots of research confirms that it contributes to one. Having sex is associated not only with happiness, but with a slew of other health benefits. The relationship between sex and wellness, perhaps unsurprisingly, goes both ways: The better off you are, the better off your sex life is, and vice versa. Unfortunately, the converse is true as well. Not having a partner—sexual or romantic—can be both a cause and an effect of discontent. Moreover, as American social institutions have withered, having a life partner has become a stronger predictor than ever of well-being."

Congrats to this King for going out and making connections!

Overall unsettling rating: 4/5

no offense but my kink is people finding love

Curing my break-up. Curing my depression. Who'd've thought a white man could help me out like this.

I'm A Ding Dong Daddy From Dumas and i'm crying tears of happiness again

Rewatch after rewatch I find a new way to take some new message or moral away—but really all that matters is how much of a gift Finding Frances is to the people and to television, being completely honest

thank you nathan. for everything.

the only film to out pizza the hut

This being my first exposure to Nathan For You, I had no idea what to expect. What I found was something equal parts awkward, absurd, funny, heartfelt, and human. This was a wholly unique journey that Nathan Fielder managed to orchestrate and capture and I loved every bit of it. One of the most remarkable documentaries I have seen in a while.
