  • IIFR E119: Amélie

    Oh mon dieu! I hope you brought your reading glasses because this week we closed out Foreign Film February with the subtitled verbosity of Amélie (don't forget the accent aigu)!  We have had frenetic techno action with the Germans, time bending sex with the Spanish and now it's time for those crazy french to bring all the quirk.  So cut your bangs real short, contemplate the desires of a curious cat, and don't use proverbs as a replacement for background checks on your manic pixie tinder date.

  • IIFR E118: Lucía y el Sexo

    How does Foreign Flick February celebrate Valentines Day? With all the Sexo that's how.  So put the kids to bed, it's about to get steamy...and muddy as we talk about Lucía y el Sexo.  So drop your drawers, double check the references of your nanny, and grow a Spanish mullet (apparently that is the best way to cover up your personality flaws and attract the best Spanish ladies).  Maybe check the IMDB parent's guide on this one.  Viva el sexo!!!

  • IIFR E117: Run Lola Run

    We're studying abroad this month and watching some foreign flicks.  This week we're hitting the ground running with Run Lola Run!  So strap on your best clunky running boots, set your spotify playlist to berlin techno supreme, and maybe really assess if that cute dummy with the puppy dog eyes is really boyfriend material.  So get ready for all the cardio and come celebrate the true princess of Quantumania.  LOLAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!

  • IIFR E116: The Outsiders

    Are you a Dockers Dude or one of The Outsiders?  Take our quick survey and find out!  Do you like sleeping on outdoor oklahoma ottomans? Do you like your hair with a party in the back and greasy all over? Are you a promising male actor from 1983 (we will also accept tiger beat pop stars or underground jazz singers)? Final question, do you like donnybrooks in a deluge?  Guess, what you're an Outsider.  And just like Olive Garden, when you're here you're family.  But no free bread, that's for those on the other side of the tracks.
