Where does the $200-million Mulan stand in the pantheon of Disney’s live-action remakes?
We discuss the film’s multiple behind-the-scenes controversies, its treatment of Gong Li’s shapeshifting character, and how it panders to Chinese interests (in vain).
Later, we talk about Netflix’s terrible new reality series The Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives, and Asif Kapadia’s documentary film Diego Maradona in light of the great footballer’s death.
