Men 2022
Alex Garland: We live in Society
-or-
Men will literally write Men before going to therapy.This should be as divisive as Mother! (which I think is better, tbh) but maybe it delivers enough body horror to appease the more niche audience that will pay $5/month for early access to A24 tote bags and basketball shorts.
