On the 419th episode of Piecing It Together, Eric Langberg joins me to talk about Emilia Pérez. This musical about a trans cartel leader mixes a lot of tones and ideas... Not always so successfully. Puzzle pieces include The Assignment, South Park, La La Land and Green Book.
As always, SPOILER ALERT for Emilia Pérez and the movies we discuss!
