I too found the documentary about Anthony Weiner a very well spent hour and a half. Per John:
“…Weiner is well worth seeing. It is engrossing and often funny. Anthony Weiner himself comes off surprisingly well. He has a sense of humor and shows flashes of self-knowledge, works tirelessly and sometimes effectively as a candidate, and shows courage when he continues his doomed campaign, fulfilling commitments for appearances when he knows the result will be humiliation. At the same time, his flaws as a person and a candidate are baldly on display: he lies, lacks self-control and is hyper-combative at all the wrong times. Huma Abedin, the second most important figure in the documentary, also comes off better than I expected….”

Where we part company is that I found Huma Abedin full, and well, worthy of praise — without exception. The drama of watching a strong woman following what she feels is the right course for her, in the face of a lying, cheating partner, should never be looked at sideways — by anyone — least of all anyone not in her shoes.

But I’ll not make too much of too little — so we do agree. A good movie.

Namaste, one and all.
