Because you always hurt the ones you love
Actually so beautiful. I love docs and this is one of the coolest I’ve seen since being on the Boxd. I love Bob Flanagan and his relationship with his wife. All of the art and gallery bits are really cool. I’m so happy I can finally say I’ve seen the movie that I larped as my third source on my AP LANG exam.

Bob was truly one of a kind. I knew nothing about him before this documentary, but now I feel as if I will never forget him. A triumph of a documentary.
