Had you guys heard of Enlightened, HBO's NewAge dramedy with Laura Dern? I didn't, and it looks pretty good. All the appropriate contradictions appear to be in place, including - and especially - the raging hostility at the world, hidden under the all-purpose Peace-and-Love platitudes. They got me.
Self-delusion. Delusion as to the nature of others. Delusion as to the nature of reality. All the bases are covered by the lead character, Amy Jellicoe. Other than revealing more about the "holistic treatment facility" she was in - and snapping her - I really don't know what HBO can be doing better.
