Louis C.K. Documentary Lets Women He Harassed Have the Last Laugh

The trailer for a new documentary about Louis C.K. opens with footage of fellow alleged predator Charlie Rose describing the comedian as a “philosopher king” in the mold of Lenny Bruce or Bob Dylan. All C.K. could do in response was reply, “Jesus” and bury his head in his hands.

Sorry/Not Sorry is ostensibly about C.K.’s ongoing (and largely successful) attempts at a comeback after getting “canceled” in the fall of 2017. But more than that, as evidenced in the exclusive trailer below, it is a chance for the women who first spoke out against him to tell their stories with more time and space (and humor) than they were ever given at the height of the #MeToo movement.
