360 Staff Pick: Big Fan

Studio 360

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.
