From W.HYY in Philadelphia, this is Fresh Air Weekend. I'm Tanya Mosley. Today, Benicio del Toro. He's starring in

West Anderson's new film, The Phoenician Scheme. In it, he plays Ja Jaja Corta, a wealthy

industrialist, who survives multiple assassination attempts and tries to reunite with his only daughter,

a nun living in seclusion.

Also MSNBC political analyst Molly John Fast talks about her mother, Erica John, who became

famous for her 1973 feminist novel, Fear of Flying.

The novel was known for the character's sexual fantasies.

I have always wanted to talk to my mother about sex as little as possible.

I remember when I was older, she'd be like, do you want to have the talk?

And I would be like, please, dear God, my whole life is the talk.

And Justin Chang reviews the new romantic drama materialists.

That's coming up on Fresh Air Weekend.
