Starlet 2012
This indie film from 2012 about some porn actresses and a Bingo-loving old woman who one of them befriends following a yard sale lacked the necessary realism to really connect. And it’s named after that dog on the poster which never made any sense to me.
Dree Hemingway isn’t terrible but has underwear issues. I enjoyed Besedka Johnson’s performance as the old lady even though it was no secret that she was not a professional actress. She played a mean Bingo anyway.
This kind of stumbles along and asks you to buy the relationships between the central characters without really developing those relationships. And then the movie doesn’t really bother finishing, ending somewhat emotionally but too indeterminately to really have much impact.
