Brightest Star

My wife and I were looking for an entertaining movie after Saturday steak and wine dinner (with chocolate cake, of course) and came across this one on Amazon Prime streaming. BTW, the wine tonight was Mondavi Cabernet aged in used Bourbon barrels, quite a nice wine for a reasonable price.

What attracted me to this movie was Rose McIver, apparently this was made not long before she starred in the TV series "I Zombie" where she was bitten by a Vampire at a party, she was a medical student who found out if she ate brains of a deceased person she could see what happened, so her job at the coronor's lab also helped the dectective solve crimes.

Anyway in this movie she is not the main character but she is one of the girlfriends. The "Boy" doesn't really know what he wants to do with his life, he gets a job in international sales and does it well, but isn't motivated. He is interest in Astronomy but doesn't have a technical degree so he takes a job at a remote observatory to see if some magical spark will direct him.

I don't rate this movie very highly. However we did both find it enjoyable and entertaining even if the flashes back and the flashes to present aren't always easy to follow. It is an unusual movie.
