Quiz Lady

Humdrum homebody Annie (Awkwafina) loves only two things, her pug Mr. Linguini and her favorite game show, Can't Stop the Quiz. In fact, she’s never missed an episode, turning into a trivia savant over the years. But when her gambling addicted mother absconds to Macau, a vengeful bookie kidnaps Mr. Linguini, holding him hostage until the debts can be repaid. Reluctantly reuniting with her older sister Jenny (Sandra Oh), a capricious oddball stuck in a state of whimsy and arrested development, the duo plot a way to get Jenny on Can't Stop the Quiz to make the money back and save her precious pooch. Awkwafina and Oh have irresistible chemistry as the ultimate odd couple, bringing bickering sisters to new heights under the steady hand of Academy Award® winner director Jessica Yu who imparts this winning comedy with equal measures of humor and heart.
