But the story and the intrigue, those translate perfectly.

The House of Guinness is streaming now on Netflix.

Coming up, film critic Justin Chang reviews One Battle After Another, the new film by Paul Thomas Anderson starring Leonardo DiCaprio.

This is Fresh Air.

Our film critic, Justin Chang, says One Battle After Another, a new action thriller from the director Paul Thomas Anderson, is one of the best movies he's seen all year.

It's a loose adaptation of Thomas Pynchon's novel Vineland, starring Leonardo DiCaprio as a former political militant who's gone into hiding with his daughter.

Here is Justin's review.

Justin Chang is a film critic for The New Yorker magazine.

On Monday's show, comic and actor Cristela Alonso talks about growing up in a Texas border town.

Her mother was a Mexican immigrant who was undocumented until Alonso was 10.

Alonzo's family squatted in an abandoned diner.

She became the first Latina to create, write, and star in a network TV show.

She has a new Netflix comedy special.

I hope you can join us.
