Emilia Pérez

The Spanish-language French musical crime movie Emilia Pérez was interesting. Rita Moro Castro (Zoe Saldana), a lawyer, is hired to help the previous cartel leader Emilia Pérez transition, then create an association to find the bodies of cartel victims and provide closure to their families.

A woman left the cinema after ~20 minutes. I wonder which part she objected to...

The first chunk of the movie is focused on surgery. Then it's about Emilia's new life. ( Spoiler )

Le Merle à l'alambic by T. Pralinus

The French graphic novel Le Merle à l'alambic by T. Pralinus (aka Théo Kotenka and Théodore Koshka) was lovely and fun. Two women open an alchemy shop.

Note that the art is in black and white like a manga. There are about 240 pages + an epistolary short story that takes place shortly after.

My favourite character is the blackbird from the title, which is the name of the shop. There's f/f, as well as some minor m/m.
