Watched this with my buddy Laila, excellent movie. We skipped the parts that were plot heavy because it was overshadowing all the delicious orientalism. I couldn’t look away from their hideous outfits and “hanji” isn’t Arabic? This is such a good movie to watch if you enjoy secondhand embarrassment and want to turn off 90% of your brain’s executive functions for an hour (Laila’s cut is 1 hour because she skips all the boring plot parts).
