The Stand In (2020)
9/10
Interestingly dark but happy ending for 2 of the characters...

"You're nothing but a dark hole where a person should be..." was a profound line to me. I only watched it because I love Drew Barrymore's work & acting & thought her depiction of both characters was very good. Nice twist of fate at the end. The grass isn't always greener on the other side is the catchphrase for this movie to me when it comes to the Paula character. She got what she always wanted, but is it really what she wanted once she got it? The price of fame. I like that it ended with the Cathy character being happy. I like movies that end happy because I need a break from the harsh reality of life. And isn't that what tv & movies should be since it's not real as they say in this movie?
