A Picture of Her (2023 TV Movie)
5/10
Another character not helping their injured relative
27 March 2023
Warning: Spoilers
The movie started off surprisingly with someone who looked like they knew how to use a camera compared to the really fake photographers in other movie. Then it gets into the cliche, with another injured relative who will miraculously heal all by themselves with zero help from the main character. Not sure what the big deal is with her being on the cover of a lifestyle magazine. She didn't talk, she didn't do anything, she didn't save anyone, she didn't steal anything, she was just smelling a flower. So they just want her as a model? Did she forget her purpose here was to take care of her aunt? Cause she spent most of the time kissing the guy and deciding if she should be caught up in this LA dream. Sorry- she moved three orchids to help her aunt and demanded the guy pick out everything from the farmers market. The aunt had to cook a meal all by herself, deal with all her daily activity without the girl around. I didn't think the movie would focus so much on the girl having a rollercoaster of emotions, crying and filming commercials, and more crying- oh you are shutterbot?!! Look at that, she's crying again and the aunt with the broken foot is getting her tea, bend down to get a package. A small misunderstanding that went crazy. I thought the girl was going to use her fame to advocate for environmental right, or the guy would come fishing. This flower girl photo is not unique, it's not like love's portrait which was a wonderful story, this was so blahhhh. I wanted to like the movie but it fell really flat.
