Alexander Payne

Book Vs. Movie: ElectionThe 1998 Novel Vs. the 1999 FilmThe Margos have had the Tom Perrotta novel Election on their list to cover since the podcast began in 2008, but for some reason--it was not made available until this summer. Who could forget Reese Witherspoon’s performance as Tracy Flick? Matthew Broderick's last line in the Alexander Payne movie? The story is about an ambitious woman who will win her high school presidential campaign no matter what made Witherspoon a star. Her character became an avatar for people who tried too hard and were overbearing. Tracy believes she will easily win the election, not counting one of her teachers (Mr. M.) has it in for her; one of her fellow students is doing it as a goof (nice, but not very bright Paul Warren) while his sister (Tammy) is doing it in retaliation against Paul’s girlfriend Lisa (who used to date Tammy.) The teacher who has sex with Tracy (while his wife is pregnant!) loses his job, which makes Mr. M. angry, and he feels he needs to rob her of an election win. Now that there is a new Perrotta novel, a sequel called Tracy Flick Can’t Win, is it time to have a new look at not only her character but also the plot in the first place? Who were the villains here? Why does Mr. M. hate her so much? The Margos have so much to unpack here!This episode is sponsored by Kensington Books and the novel Twice a Quinceaňera by Yamile Saied Méndez.“This book will set your dreams on fire” –praise for Yamile Saied Mendez by Reese Witherspoon for Furia by Yamile Saied Méndez.Instead of losing the deposit on her wedding venue, a jilted bride decides to throw herself a quinceañera (times two) for her 30th birthday in this effervescent rom-com from Yamile Saied Méndez, the acclaimed author of the Reese Witherspoon YA Book Club Pick FURIA.

But that same courage doesn’t translate to breaking the news to her Argentinian family. She’s hyperventilating before facing them when she glimpses a magazine piece about a Latina woman celebrating herself—with a second quinceañera, a.k.a. Sweet 15!

Nos trasladamos a la cálida california, donde los villedos copan hasta donde llega el horizonte para acompañar a una pareja de amigos en un catárquico viaje de despedida de soltero. Hablaremos del éxito, el fracaso, las expectativas de vida, la tolerancia a la frustración, la gestión del estress y de lo buenos que están los buenos vinos.

Reseña de la exitosa y agridulce comedia que mezcla la crisis de la madurez, la depresión, los rolletes de verano y la cata de vinos. Paul Giamatti y Thomas Haden Church son dos amigos cuarentones que se lanzan a una semana viaje como gran despedida antes de la boda del segundo, aunque sus verdaderos intereses (al igual que sus personalidades) poco tienen que ver, y entre ellos no tardará en levantarse un muro. Comenzarán entonces los disgustos, las decepciones, las risotadas y las grandes lecciones de vida.
