Weiner

I saw Weiner last night. It was funny, tragic and at times excruciatingly painful. His poor wife and family.

Politics, ego, narcissism, delusion, lying, Twitter, sexting, dysfunctional marriage, tabloid media, the Clintons . . . it's all there.

Weiner's failed 2013 NYC mayoral campaign is the backdrop for the film. He finished last with less than 5 percent of the vote, in an election that generated a 24 percent voter turnout, the lowest in more than 50 years.

Perhaps defective candidates will keep most of us home again this November?
