OOF the point about "creatives with relative privilege juggling corporate appetites with a desire for pure expression" hit me right in the gut. I saw The Menu right after I got off work, with a bunch of my fellow artists at the video game company I work for, and this was absolutely our takeaway as we walked out of the theatre.

Doesn't stick every landing, but I saw the tiniest bit of all of us in Slowik's madness—just trying to make something worthy and timeless and transcendent within the corporate parameters we'd been dealt. 😑
