If you loved Dr. T & the Women, try Cookie's Fortune
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Robert Altman, and they both carry the tender mood tag, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Dr. T & the Women, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Cookie's Fortune is
Someone stages a suicide after a matriarch’s sudden demise just to keep the inheritance local. A town’s worth of loony relatives and a journalist descend on the scene. The one real surprise is Altman’s ability to make chaos feel like community theater.
