"Examining the Struggles of 'Sorry/Not Sorry': Louis C.K. Sexual Misconduct Doc's Search for a Fresh Perspective"

The documentary "Sorry/Not Sorry" explores the rise and fall of comedian Louis C.K. in the wake of sexual harassment allegations, focusing on his behavior towards female comedians. The film attempts to provide a timeline of C.K.'s actions being exposed to the public, featuring interviews with comedy figures and writers. However, the documentary feels undercooked and lacks a clear thesis, serving more as an information piece rather than offering new insights. It highlights the difficulty women face in navigating the comedy industry's boys' club and the public evaluation of whether they should care about their experiences. The film concludes with a discussion on cancellation and the lack of consensus on the matter, leaving the question of change unanswered.
