MODERATORS
I also highly recommend the book (and all of Jon Ronson tbh)
I read the book first which made me really not like the movie. I think in a vacuum the movie is fine, but the heavy fictionalization to the point of preposterousness of something that was only one part of the book was just such a twisting. The book was about government waste, fraud, and abuse. The movie was about a wacky special forces guy who could apparently on some level actually use powers.
“Them” is also great and has Ronson sneaking into Bohemia Grove with a pre-full-on-crazy-grifter Alex Jones. I read it in one sitting.
