Running over two and half hours, Emilia Perez is a sometimes-challenging watch, but this viewer was never bored. I don’t think you could really put this film in a genre at all. Think Scarface with gender identity and musical numbers. It shouldn’t work but it does. It all begins with Rita (Zoe Saldaña) a defence…

Posted on August 1, 2023 by Nyah Barnett
