This week, actor and improviser Sara Caplan (UCB) and comedian Lou Gonzalez (The Other Two) join James and Jon to cover Emilia Pérez, written and directed by Jacques Audiard, starring Zoe Saldaña, Karla Sofía Gascón, Selena Gomez, Adriana Paz, Mark Ivanir, and Édgar Ramírez. Together, they discuss their general feelings on movie musicals as a form, how clunky they found the whole film, their favorite absolutely wild lines, why the characters do... just about everything they do, whether or not Saldaña's character is actually a good lawyer, the film's many controversies, and much, much more!
