The Pebble and the Boy (2021)
A bit limp.
Sorry, I don't get the 10/10 thing. Must be me. It failed as a road movie, just not enough road shots and those that were there were clearly at about 5 mph in a park, too many convenient coincidences eased their path. The premise was fine, but too many angst ridden teenager shots. The final denouement was painful and, frankly, a bit cruel.
The Kensit attempted seduction thing. Dearie me.
Nice music, but not enough made of it. Sorry, not for me.
Stage Mother (2020)
Missed opportunity.
What should have been a glorious, camp, gag fest, and the story of a coming to her senses of a homophobic mother, was tired, contrived and devoid of humour. Sorry.
It lacked any depth, evidenced by the ludicrous change of heart of her deeply resentful business partner. The not-quite-an-affair with the hotel concierge was just weird.
Lovely shots of SF, though.
