Irishman disappoints; American Factory excellent

In the three plus hour movie, “The Irishman,” the 50s classic cars are a good reason to watch this American history study from the gangster narrative.  The Hudson Hornet, Chrysler Imperial and Lincoln Town Car are among those featured.  What more is there to say about American gangsters, except the one in the Oval Office?
  
“American Factory” documentary on Netflix is an insightful investigative journalism expose of the corrosive management by the Chinese of an automobile glass factory in Dayton, Ohio.  Aside from the physical and mental toll the workers endure, many of them will be unemployed soon because of automation robots. See the Obamas endorsement of this film, also on Netflix.
