52docs / 13 - Don't be an idiot

I just finished the new Serial Productions podcast - The Idiot - which has nothing to do with this week’s film or the idiot-in-chief but definitely worth a listen.

Our particular idiot is someone who turned fifty and didn’t get a colonoscopy (gulp) and paid the ultimate price, but not before starring in a documentary described almost universally as moving, hilarious, irreverent, and oddly uplifting.

Like most people (?) I’m not usually a fan of films about death but I saw the trailer for this in the cinema and people LOL’d so let’s steel ourselves for some pathos and give it a try.
