I have to say, there's not much room to the Right of me, and I watched this movie when it came out. It's brilliant. My whole, Trump-supporting family loved it.

And yes, it makes a heroine of the young girl from Wherever-zuela, but it's because of her innocence and good character in the real sense.

the movie is very conservative about men and women, wealth, and character--not to mention contemporary politics. It mercilessly skewers self-indulgent Leftists. The plot is weirdly realistic, and dang, it's funny.

I agree it’s brilliant as a tool of indoctrination, can’t understand why our side can’t produce stuff like this.

It only skewers leftist from a perspective of their personality not their politics (although I admit I turned it off probably 1/2 the way through).

You're joking, right? Even the core premise was ridiculous. There are two bottles from which the latina nurse gives the old man shots - one of which benefits him at a certain dose, and the other that will kill him at that same dose. The murder plot involves switching the contents of each bottle.

But the "innocence" of the nurse hangs on the fact that she was such a good nurse she knew instinctively which liquid was which by weight? How incredibly irresponsible and incompetent of a nurse do you have to be to administer these injections without looking at the freaking labels, just to be sure? Just one day when your magical immigrant powers are off and you give the set dose from the wrong bottle, and the old man is dead anyway. But we're supposed to think "Aw shuck, she's so good she didn't fall for the murderer's trick anyhow!" The incompetent bitch would have eventually killed him regardless.
