Insincerity / hypocrisy may be a key to whether a work is watchable / listenable.

I think “Working Girl” is still watchable (Kevin Spacey plays a sexual harasser quite convincingly).

“Manhattan” is more problematic than “Annie Hall” because it condones abuse / exploitation. Apparently Allen was harassing Mariel Hemingway while making Manhattan, which adds another level of unwatchability.

And there may be value in watching problematic movies — if you view them as such. Everybody should see “Triumph of the Will” in order to understand how Nazi propaganda worked. “Crimes and Misdemeanors” may illustrate how Woody Allen created the nebbish persona in order to conceal darker, more troubling (i.e. socially unacceptable) thoughts and actions. You don’t necessarily enjoy a problematic movie, but you can learn from it.

My biggest dilemma is with the works of Roman Polanski. I don’t think he’s promoting a phony virtuous identity in his fiction at least. In real life, he lies about what he is and did, however.
