"description": "At last, the definitive book about perhaps the best cabin crew dramedy ever filmed: View From the Top starring Gwyneth Paltrow.\n\nIn Ayoade on Top, Richard Ayoade, perhaps one of the most \u2018insubstantial\u2019 people of our age, takes us on a journey from Peckham to Paris by way of Nevada and other places we don\u2019t care about. It\u2019s a journey deep within, in a way that\u2019s respectful and non-invasive; a journey for which we will all pay a heavy price, even if you\u2019ve waited for the smaller paperback edition.\n\nAyoade argues for the canonisation of this brutal masterpiece, a film that celebrates capitalism in all its victimless glory; one we might imagine Donald Trump himself half-watching on his private jet\u2019s gold-plated flat screen while his other puffy eye scans the cabin for fresh, young prey.",
