Okay. And in that case you wouldn’t apply the “unless you’re watching to learn how to play poker” take?

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Just saw this and it's outstanding! I goddamn loved every minute of it. Seriously, this is the best film I've seen so far this year.

Thank you again, Jorge, for the heads up.
