Amy Irving is a BANGIN' American teaching English in Rio de Janeiro and gets hit on by basically everyone in the country.  Antonio Fagundes is an attorney who tries to woo her and spends most of the movie looking f***in' fantastic in a suit (why shouldn't he, his Dad is a tailor). After watching this movie I became convinced that all of Brazil is collectively horny (how wonderful). Stephen Tobolowsky shows up.

The recipe is easy but, as always, I'll walk you through it.

In 1998, Walter Salles directed Fernanda Montenegro, Marilia Pera and Vinicius de Oliveira in a Brazillian picture from a screenplay adapted by Joao Emanuel and Marcos Bernstein.  In case you missed it, Montenegro won an Academy Award for Best Actress in 1999. P.S.  the movie also snagged a nomination for Best Foreign Language Film. That usually indicates that this is something you should watch.   

Oh, and along the way, we'll teach you how to make a cornbread that will make you disgusted with simple buttered toast from now until Judgement Day.

We didn't love it.  However, we don't speak for everyone.  The life of a male ex-porn star is a rough one.  Anthony Jeselnik is one of our FAVORITE comedians and he LOVED it!  For those of you who like tales of the rough and tumbled souls living out there on the fringes, trying to reinvigorate their hustle, check it out.

We review 'Columbus' - a 2017 film  were a Korean-born man finds himself stuck in Columbus, Indiana, where his architect father is in a coma. The man meets a young woman who wants to stay in Columbus with her mother, a recovering addict, instead of pursuing her own dreams.  Who would have thought there was anything to see in Indiana?

The recipe of the week - Honey Soy Chicken! Pay attention - it's a good one and it's easy.

Finally, German female prison inmates start a food fight - get fined.

What can we say - Louisa Loves Leo.  We do a deep dive on the hit movie staring Leo DiCaprio about the life and adventures of Frank Abagnale. There is (as always) a recipe - Fruit Au Gratin - if you can believe that.  Then, Louisa goes to Okinawa and doesn't bring Jay any souvenirs.
