Review of Bagdad Cafe

Bagdad Cafe (1987)
6/10
Peculiar but charming little slow-starter.
28 July 2001
"Bagdad Cafe" tells of a stout, laconic female German tourist who abandons her husband in the middle of California's Mohave desert and wanders into a ramshackle truck stop where she proceeds to quietly do a sort of Tony Robbins transformation of its eccentric inhabitants. A plodding slow-starter, this flick requires patience from the audience as it tells its somewhat sweet story and delivers its moral which is loosely something like "attitude is everything". A worthwhile watch for those into quirky one-of-a-kind "feel good" flicks.
