MY STORY
But remember: every documentary is also a product. It has a producer, a bias, and a release date optimized for awards season. When you watch one, you aren't just a fan. You are a juror in the court of public opinion.
The current landscape of the entertainment industry is shifting toward using documentaries as "currency." High-profile figures, such as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, are increasingly using docuseries as or market research before committing to larger scripted budgets.
