Retro Movie Adventures: Swing Girls (2004)

Comes out swinging.

“Lighthearted fun” sounds dismissive, but making lighthearted fun that’s actually lighthearted and fun is an impressive skill. This is the best movie about Japanese schoolgirls (and a boy) accidentally causing food poisoning and then being forced to join a jazz band I’ve ever seen.

Well worth the subtitles.
