Do you hear the unearthly chorus singing our names? That’s right, this week Kim and Alice are covering the linguistically diverse pirate drama, Sandokan. We’re stalking through the jungle with our lonely island tiger, celebrating immovable eyeliner and mediocre female protagonists.

Well this might be a bit above our pay grade, but as fate would have it, this week Kim and Alice are covering the animated classic, Persepolis. It’s as much a coming of age tale as it is a unique look into life during the Iranian revolution, and a truly gorgeous and heartbreaking film.

Hope you all sent your Victorian Valentines because we’re back with a new season, and this week Kim and Alice review proposal-a-thon, Far from the Madding Crowd. It’s every girl’s dream (cucumbers and a piano) mixed with every girl’s nightmare (swordplay cringe) and a great reason to talk about sheep baths.
