I listened to the audiobook last year. Adored every moment, even if the deep science dives were a bit much for my very non-science brain. Great comparison of the differences between the book and the movie, and loved your summary of what this movie is about. Such a great film.

Can't wait to hear about it!
I also thought it's depiction of positive male friendships was powerful. But I'm saying that as a woman
Why did you choose “right wing extremists”? How about “left wing extremists”? They’re in need also.
Oh dear.
