2019 was a busy year for excellent movies - what with your Parasites, Portrait of a Lady on Fires, Jojo Rabbits - but do not let that excuse Cozi or YOU from seeing Lulu Wang’s masterful sad-com The Farewell! Equal parts familiar returning-to-your-hometown story and a one-of-a-kind glimpse into traditional Chinese family dynamics, this film will make you laugh, then cry, and before you know it, you'll be calling your congressional representative demanding “Justice for Awkwafina and Zhao Shuzhen!!” when you discover neither were nominated for an Oscar. Tune in, won't you, stupid child?
Also discussed in this episode: Rush Hour, Jason Segel, and The Before Trilogy.

This week Lucé is demanding justice for the completely forgotten dark comedy, Home Fries. Marketed all wrong as a daffy romcom in 1998, the film found a small audience on home video, but this chaotic murder-riddled romp is rarely acknowledged as the triumph that it is. If Schitt’s Creek turned you into a Catherine O’Hara fan, you’ll love her as a deranged Texas widow hellbent on revenge.Can Cozi get down with a twisted fast-food comedy from the vicious mind of Vince Gilligan (pre-Breaking Bad)? Can you?
Also! Cozi finally watched Another Earth after being convinced on our April 27th episode. Will his review disappoint or thrill an eager Lucé?
