Part road trip. Part mystery. 100% pure entertainment. The wonderful Toni Colette plays Ellie Klug, a rock journalist art a Seattle rock magazine. One day her boss gives her an assignment, to investigate the rumors about her ex-boyfriend who allegedly committed suicide. She teams up with an eccentric millionaire Charlie ( Thomas Haden Church), who wants to make a documentary about their quest. While all this is transpiring, she hooks up with a talented and charming street musician Lucas (Ryan Eggold). Actually, in the course of the movie, she ends up sleeping with a bunch of men, indiscriminately.
The film is an excellent showcase for Ms. Colette, who's great in everything she does. What a wonderfully talented actor she is. Lucky Them is a fun, offbeat indie movie, but it has a number of introspective moments as well. The acting and writing are consistently remarkable throughout the film I just wonder why it's not better known.
