'What is Wrong with Men': New book explores that question through Michael Douglas films

In her new book "What Is Wrong with Men: Patriarchy, the Crisis of Masculinity, and How (Of Course) Michael Douglas Films Explain Everything," podcaster and author Jessa Crispin examines how the films Michael Douglas made in the 1980s and 1990s reflect the anxieties of those times.
