What I Watched -- Newness

Newness is an attempt at social commentary.  It is the story of two millennials who find each other via an online dating app.  The question appears to be: "have dating apps ruined our ability to find love?"  The question turns out to be: "in a world where there are endless choices and no one can commit, can love survive an open relationship?"

It's not really the question that I wanted answered.  I much prefer stories about how millennials are destroying society than about how nothing has ever changed and nothing ever will.

Spoiler alert: the answer to both questions is no.

Bottom line: a good effort, but not what I was looking for.
