As she embarks towards her dream of acting, a seemingly innocent farewell from senior citizens turns sinister, painting a disquieting picture of American aspiration. This sentiment resonates with the reality show 'The Baldwins,' which features Alec Baldwin and his family, yet lacks Lynch’s surreal complexity, providing instead a conventional narrative that still evokes lingering questions about the darkness behind cheerful façades.
