Emilia Perez

We're back! This week, we watched the Academy-beloved, audience-disliked 2024 movie Emilia Perez. Does the Spanish-language musical about a trans Mexican druglord in hold up, even though it was made by a cis French director who chose to learn nothing about trans people, about Mexico, or even to learn how to speak Spanish? Let's find out!

Topics discussed:

1. The problems with Mexican kidnapping codes
2. Why can no one in this musical sing?
3. David Cronenberg's Crash
4. How to know you're the bad guy
