Netflix’s ‘This World Can’t Tear Me Down’ Is a Hyper Animated Roadmap Through Friendship and Fascism
“This World Can’t Tear Me Down” faces the kind of uphill battle of most semi-autobiographical stories: the challenge to make something specific enough to justify its own existence, but not so self-centered that it becomes overly indulgent. It’s a fine line to walk, but one that writer/cartoonist Zerocalcare has done before in his career.
