Emilia Prez Review | Zoe Saldaa Is Pitch-Perfect in a Flawed Musical
The film “Emilia Pérez,” directed by Jacques Audiard, has been drawing attention since its debut at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, where it won the Jury Prize and shared the Best Actress award with its female ensemble (consisting of Zoe Saldaña, Karla Sofia Gascón, Selena Gomez, and Adriana Paz). This movie is undeniably bold, as it combines elements of a musical, crime thriller, comedy, and a transgender narrative. However, while the performances are exceptional, particularly by Zoe Saldaña, not every aspect of the film seamlessly integrates.
