Going Clear to me was immensely disappointing because it was SO centered on the guy who made Crash (Not The Kinky One), and....apart from centering a whole narrative around The Guy Who Made Crash (Not The Kniky One)....it downplayed a lot of the stories of the people who went through actual horrendous shit, most of them women, and Reitman's book was about them. Her book was based on like five years plus of research and investigative reporting, and was the first big nonfiction history of Scientology, and it gets overshadowed by his, which is basically All About Haggis (based on his NYorker profile of the guy no less), and I just get really salty about it (no kidding).

SPINSTER WATSON. (Isn't there some running gag/fixit in the Holmes stories about Watson's wives?)
