Surely this movie goes straight to streaming (Netflix). It's a black & white movie and it's about a writer in Hollywood. Eh, Oscars? He isn't overcoming a decease nor is he putting the problems of a minority group in the spotlight. But it might tell a few ugly truths about Hollywood though ...

It's a tv movie. It's not cinema. Do you honestly think that the only movies are the ones listed in your stupid comments. Do you really think a Birdbox is as cinematic as The Quiet Place? What about a film on Lifetime. It's a movie just like a movie on Netflix or a movie at the theatre just as worthy. Next you'll tell us a burrito at Taco Hell is the same as a burrito La Hacienda's.
