I love that you've tacked this! I actually had a para in my latest post about this interview in terms of how quickly things are coming round again, which I align to the need to commemorate everything that ever happens as if it's a Watershed Moment because a)we can and b)its easier than thinking something new up and c)its not a risk. However, I did enjoy Prince Andrew Interview Drama II because I liked seeing the (imagined) explanation and context for why on earth Andy would agree to such a thing. This is the question I wanted answered, and I loved that a dramatisation could fill this gap and yet still leave me wondering about it. (Ruth Wilson's accent did jar though).
What I agree emphatically about is your point in the middle about wanting to see the bit in rom coms where the couple go to Sainsbury's together. That's what documentaries are for. We need escapism and aspiration and there's a balance to be had between believability and entertainment, but that's the challenge for every good film maker.
