Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The title's 'Madness' deliberately echoes 19th-century Gothic confessions—think Poe's unreliable men, but with modern therapy-speak weaponized against the audience.
Released amid discourse about 'literary men' and their autobiographical fiction, the film essentially becomes the problem it depicts—intentionally or not.
