“Hideous Kinky”

Another great film that really should be renamed. Despite its misleading title, this is a terrific film. Kate Wins let stars as a mother of two girls, seeking spiritual enlightenment in Morocco in the 1970s. She leaves her deadbeat poet husband in London and ventures out with her family. She ends up striking up a friendship with a kindly street performer. The cinematography is excellent and vividly captures what life is like in the Mid-East. I thought the performances of the two young daughters were remarkable. 4 1/2 stars out of 5.
