Sobre este filme

Starlet explores the unlikely friendship between two women living in San Fernando Valley: Jane (Dree Hemingway in her first leading role), an aimless 21 year-old aspiring actress, and Sadie (Besedka Johnson), an 85 year-old widow. While Jane spends her days getting high with her dysfunctional roommates, Sadie passes her time alone, often at the local bingo parlor. After their worlds collide at a yard sale, a tenuous but tender relationship starts to emerge between the two, as Jane protects a potentially volatile secret. Director Sean Baker captures the rhythms of everyday life with a rare authenticity in this provocative, unpredictable, and surprisingly sweet story of human connection. *This online version of the film differs slightly from the version in theaters.*

Starlet, 2012, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1/2. A Sean Baker film where I loved the characters! Even though I had nothing in common with them. As the two main characters grew to love each other; I was falling in love with them and the film. A young female porno star finds money hidden in yard sale thermos and then develops a relationship with the 85 year old woman who sold it to her.

It was a great movie throughout however, the ending was a bit disappointing. It may not be for some who like that kind of thing. I did think it was a great story and definite movie to see though.

No where in the description or movie trailer does it include the fact that this girl and her room mate doing porn for a living. If it had I would never have rented it. It killed the movie.
