I love the “Public Apology” column in The Awl. It’s written by Dave Bly, and each vignette is a blend of poignancy, regret, embarrassment, humor, and some kind of courage. Plus they are written lightly and wonderfully well.
Now a film team is starting to turn them into videos, each of which is just as lovely as the original column. Here’s one: Public Apology: Dear Girl From California.
