HBO There has been much discussion about the male loneliness epidemic. In a world shackled by the tenets of patriarchy, men are still guided by antiquated ideals of masculinity. They are taught to shun vulnerabilities and often turn inward instead of seeking support. In his HBO limited series “Half Man,” “Baby Reindeer” creator Richard Gadd explores the brittle bonds of male friendship and violence via the relationship between two brothers bound not by DNA, but by time and circumstance. A devastatingly brutal watch, the show explores loyalty, sexuality and how men perceive themselves through the eyes of those they both admire and despise.
