For an Uncomfortable Two Minutes, Watch the I Love You, Daddy Teaser
LatestI wasn’t expecting to be a huge fan of Louis C.K.’s forthcoming comedy I Love You, Daddy, and the film’s first trailer did not dispel my misgivings. At first I thought it was spoofing Woody Allen’s Manhattan, but it quickly veered into homage territory, an awkward position to occupy circa 2017, particularly in a week that unfortunately included Allen publicly opening his mouth to issue on opinion on the Harvey Weinstein scandal. When I’d finished watching the clip I felt both superior and annoyed, as if having just rejected the advances of a much older man who approaching me by asking “are you a student?” or “what school do you go to?” or “what do you study in school?”
