What’s Love Got To Do With It? presents an old question: How do you find lasting love in today’s world?
For documentary-maker and dating app addict Zoe, played by Lily James, swiping right has only delivered an endless stream of Mr. Wrongs. Yet, her eccentric mother, Cath, played by Emma Thompson, shows dismay.

Charlie Day directs and stars in this satirical comedy about a down-on-his-luck publicist, played by Ken Jeong. He discovers a recently released mental health patient, played by Charlie Day, whom he hopes will reboot his career.

Fool’s Paradise has a stellar cast, including Kate Beckinsale, Adrien Brody, the late Ray Liotta, Jason Sudeikis, Edie Falco, John Malkovich, Common and Jillian Bel.
Fool’s Paradise may be the late Liotta’s last film since he passed away after the film had wrapped production.
Poking fun at a mental health patient is not very kind and has nothing to do with a story about “anyone” can find success in the film business. The storyline steals from The Prince and the Pauper by Mark Twain.
Let’s find movies that expose the atrocities psychiatrists administer to these poor people in the name of “help.”
