The must-list for November 1: Cyndi Lauper, Karla Sofía Gascón and Martha Stewart
“Emilia Perez”

Director Jacques Audiard‘s Oscar contender is a bold, audacious fever dream of an opera about a violent cartel boss who fakes his own death in order to live as his true self. The title role is a star turn for Karla Sofía Gascón, with whom she shares the screen Zoe Saldaña (as a lawyer forced to help Gascón’s character go into hiding and undergo gender confirmation surgery to become Emilia Pérez) and Selena Gomez in a role she has never played before. Besides, it’s a musical, and Saldaña’s “El Mal” reminds everyone that she deserves it Center stage. —Yolanda Machado, staff editor
“Love is Blind” season 7 reunion
Netflix
Nick Lachey and Vanessa Lachey on ‘Love Is Blind’
This season of Netflix’s dating reality series was either its most successful or a total failure, as – spoiler alert – all the couples who made it to the finale got married… both of them. Whichever side of that argument you’re on, it certainly prepared us for one juicy reunion (streaming now). —Sydney Bucksbaum, staff writer
“Martha”
Thanks to Netflix
Martha Stewart in ‘Martha’
What Netflix’s new documentary best captures is not that the famous housewife‘s unprecedented rise from model to stockbroker to queen of all media. Intimate one-on-one interviews reveal in perfect clarity the imperious demands, emotional ambivalence and sparkling humor that make Martha Stewart. —Ryan Coleman, news writer
The Cyndi Lauper girls just want to have a nice farewell tour
Jim Dyson/Redferns
Cyndi Lauper
Every pop girl with a rebellious streak owes a debt to this flamboyant icon, who just kicked off her career-spanning farewell party in 24 cities. Expect a new crop of wigs and a voice built for an arena – Cyndi Lauper has never met a ballad or (she)bop that she couldn’t shoot into the stratosphere. —Jason Lamphier, editor-in-chief
“Those Luscious Days” by Jacquie Pham
Atlantic Monthly Press
Book cover of ‘Those lush days’
In 1920s French-occupied Vietnam, four friends gather in a lavish mansion for a night that ends in murder. Debut author Jacquie Pham increases the tension with a mystery that exposes the costs of colonialism, class divides and economic inequality. —Maureen Lee Lenker, senior writer
