Bad Girls We Love: Sofia Falcone in The Penguin

I watched The Penguin for the plot. The plot: Hallelujah, our savior has arrived. It only took thirty-two years, but the spiritual successor to Michelle Pfeiffer’s Selina Kyle has finally emerged. Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for Cristin Milioti, as Sofia Falcone.
