Jonathan Ames’ detective novel A Man Named Doll, and its sequel The Wheel of Doll combine the playfulness of Bored to Death (which Ames created) and You Were Never Really Here (which Lynne Ramsay adapted into a film in 2017. It’s a tricky balancing act between tones that Ames pulls of with aplomb.
Here to talk about why it should be a movie is Aquarium Drunkard writer and editor Jason Woodbury, who also hosts the Transmissions podcast.
