360 Staff Pick: Big Fan
Big Fan follows a guy (Patton Oswalt) who lives to watch the New York Giants and then bloviate on sports-talk radio. But it’s not a football movie — it’s a fascinating exploration of fandom: what we get from worshiping public figures and what happens when we glimpse their feet of clay.
At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.
