How the Meeting That Could Have Been an Email, <em>The Man Who Whispers</em> Could Have Gone to the Movies

Robert De Niro's new Netflix film, "The Man Who Whispers," is a thriller that raises questions about the current state of cinema. The criticism suggests the film works as a streaming trap, drawing audiences to the platform. The production also serves as a reflection on the gradual disappearance of this type of film from traditional theaters. The feature film also explores viewers' fascination with true crime and the figure of the "mirones," those who compulsively watch content about real or fictional crimes. The comparison in the title with "meetings that could have been emails" indicates that the film could have followed a different path—either as a theatrical production or even not existing in the form it was conceived.
