In this week’s recon, we cover Julia Roberts’ 80s breakthrough role in MYSTIC PIZZA (directed by Donald Petrie, starring Annabeth Gish, Julia Roberts, Lili Taylor, Vincent D’Onofrio, 1988).

The plot in a nutshell🥜: Sisters Daisy and Kat and their bestie Jojo work at a pizza outlet and face complications in their respective love lives until they find a perfect match.

Our discussion of it in a nutshell🥜: we dissect the film and discuss serious topics like fainting at your own wedding, a hitchhiker’s guide to hitchhiking and the travesty that is cutting the crusts off a sandwich! Plus we ask necessary questions like what is with Lorna's hair? To whom do the barrels of fish belong? And are they actually Portuguese?
