Hello Mike Powell!

The only catch is that I would have to dole out the fee to even  
begin watching it.  I am not personally interested in the film;  
I'm just looking into it for a friend.

There are other rental sources, like Apple TV, but I'm not sure  
if the rental would use the autogenerate technology too.  
However, their advertising mentions "Closed captioned: French |  
English".

Anyone here have any success downloading with yt-dlp from apple  
TV?

The YT rental scheme isn't very nice.  "Start within 30 days,  
finish within 48 hours after first playback."
