Season 2

Description
In this episode of Can I Change My Score?, Sophie and Matt revisit The Wonder, Sebastián Lelio’s slow-burning tale of miracles, misery, and medicine in post-famine Ireland. Sophie’s swooning over the cinematography and Florence Pugh’s impeccable spoon work, while Matt’s digging deep into the film’s themes of belief, trauma, and small-town control. From fourth wall breaks to real-life mother-daughter casting trivia, the pair dive into why this Netflix sleeper might just be the Florence Pugh film people are sleeping on. It’s haunting, hypnotic, and yes – a bit woeful (in the best way).
