The Contrarians187 - Pt. 2

So we enjoyed The Most Likable Song, and we (predictably) scoffed at Fake Austin. But there’s more to FRANK than its songs and the presence of SXSW in the movie. Where did The Contrarians ultimately land when it came to this undercover Fassbender vehicle? Is there more to it than the talented actor’s performance? And how tricky is it to consider FRANK’s depiction of mental illness? It’s all discussed in this Real Talk segment!
