Fallen Stars (2017)
8/10
Delivered simply but resonates profoundly.

It's like a 'Red Hot Chili Peppers' song come true. The characters are relatable, and it moves at a delightful pace. You find yourself rooting for the characters, and not necessarily for a Hollywood ending. The isolation and loneliness of ALL the characters is captured so beautifully that when Daisy and Cooper finally start their awkward relationship you feel a sense of relief. I was also angry when Cooper risked their unconventional and fragile relationship with his selfishness. I think what makes this film extra beautiful is the display of courage and open-mindedness' the main characters must display to overcome their loneliness. In a pre-COVID world with sowed division and overtly negative social media, this movie reinforces the need for connections beyond the typical constructs.
