Ever heard of an existentialist romcom?
People (myself included) often hear the word “existentialist” and start thinking about dark, brooding, nihilistic philosophies amounting to something like “life sucks and then you die.” Sure, that’s a rich tradition amongst existentialists, but there’s another side of the coin.

The core theme of existentialism is the idea that we exist in an unfathomable universe without any predetermined right/wrong, and it is up to each of us to determine for ourselves what right/wrong is. That’s what “Brightest Star” tackles in the guise of a romance about a guy trying to win back his ex-soulmate. It uses a poignant, recurring metaphor of the stars. The guy goes through life believing that “the brightest star” will one day appear and show him exactly what to do. But for some reason that star eludes him.

If you go into this expecting a standard romcom, you’ll phase out by the 2nd act. If you’re looking for a tidy Hollywood story with an eventful plot and bang finish, you’ll end up hurling your popcorn at the screen. But if you’re up for a challenging look at “finding your way” in love, life and logic, then this film delivers.

Some films are like freight trains, picking up momentum toward a singular destination. Other films take a deliberately wandering approach, with frequent jumps in the timeline, or episodic events that seem unrelated to each other. “Brightest Star” falls squarely into the 2nd category with the likes of other fragmented, soul-searching films like “(500) Days of Summer”, “Forrest Gump” and even “Citizen Kane”.

This is quite a bold directorial debut from Maggie Kelly, certainly not designed to be a crowd pleaser, but for those of you who stray off the beaten path into unwritten territory (like the main character who, if you notice, doesn’t even have a name) then this film is for you.

The Boy Makes Good Sandwiches
This rom-dram revolves around three characters. The central figure is only called The Boy…and for good reason. He never grows up and apparently doesn’t want to learn how. Lita is the daughter of a business tycoon, and she has found her calling as a singer. Appropriately, the film acknowledges that she is “wise beyond her years.” The final link in the triangle is Charlotte, an artist with a face from a Botticelli painting, who does not appear to have much depth or insight into herself or others.

The film is messy in making credible this curious romantic triangle. The main problem is that it was never believable that either Lita or Charlotte would have an attraction or give the time of day to such an infantile character as The Boy.

One of the most interesting portions of the film is when The Boy runs away from both Lita and Charlotte to give up a career in business that was handed to him on a platter and to go in in search of the greater meaning of life by working as a janitor in an observatory. The director of the facility who goes by the nickname of Hypathia in lieu of her real name, Jessica, provides some direction in The Boy’s life when she tells him, “You’re fired!”

The Boy should be grateful for the precious time he had with both Lita and Charlotte, as well as the good advice provided to him by Hypathia. If there is any message to this muddled film, it might be to count your blessings for the opportunities you have had in life to be with special people even if the relationships do not “work out.” And the main takeaway for The Boy is for him to recognize that his true calling in life is to make delicious sandwiches.
