Emilia Pérez
from Mama Needs a Movie Hosted by Mama Needs a Movie
Anne and Ryan discuss the year's most Oscar-nominated film, Jacques Audiard's musical EMILIA PÉREZ starring Zoe Saldaña, Karla Sofía Gascón and Selena Gomez. The film follows a Mexican cartel leader who recruits a lawyer to help her transition into a woman and restart her life as a philanthropist. Drawing both accolades as an inventive, relevant musical and criticism as a tone-deaf overreach into Mexican and trans representation, EMILIA PÉREZ is the most polarizing film of any recent awards season. Join our discussion of Audiard's divisive musical, taking diversions into Justin Baldoni, George Lucas, offensive Tweets, Josh O'Connor, The Reader, Born in East L.A., and much, much more! EMILIA PÉREZ is currently available to stream on Netflix.
