That should be an enormous red flag. When you have to hit up everyone you know to twist their arm to get them to kick in for your movie you should listen to them and think 'maybe this is a bad plan. Moreover, when the lead actress is married to the CEO of a production company that's not involved in the movie just maybe it's a radioactive slag heap.
It's not all bad. She's pretty to look at in a cold Gillian Anderson kind of way. Or if Tori Spelling were good looking. The housecat is also very soothing. What's not good is her on again off again American accent that lapses into Scottish.
Some weird things in the movie are, does she live in a house or an apt? Either way it's 3x.the size of my home. But I have a washer dryer and she doesn't. Why are the people taking so many showers? Seems that normal is taking 3 showers a day. Why do Portland thunderstorms go on for 3 or 4 days? Wouldn't that be some kind of state of emergency? How does a home with no direct access to the outdoors be something a cat repeatedly escapes from? Don't dead bodies start to smell? How do you take 3 showers a day AND wander around in an endless hurricane and your hair is never wet and your makeup is always perfect? When did changing a lightbulb become fearsome? Why does it take 12 hrs to call someone who's missing? How do hot women live on nothing but two sips wine every 4 days, even if, like her sleeps 20 hrs a day?
