A brief pointer towards Granny Prostitues aka Lola Magdalena (2024) NYAFF 2024


A group of older women do what they must to stay in their house after a man claiming ownership threatens to evict them.

I'm not going to do a review of this film. It's not because there is anything wrong with it, rather it's because the film's mix of humor and melodrama wasn't my cup of tea. Playing like a silly sitcom that occasionally shifts into serious territory before going back again, I found myself not really clicking with the film. Yes I smiled, but to be honest it really didn't hold my attention and I only stayed to the end because I was reviewing it.

I need to state this again, the problem is that it wasn't a mix I cared for, though I know several people who will eat this up.
