If Starlight Hotel(NZ)(1987) had got so much as half the recognition it deserved, Beneath Clouds would not be able to even rear its head.
Initially this ran as a most beautiful work of art, then around halfway through I began to realise I had seen it all before.
See if this sounds familiar. Starlight Hotel is a road movie about a young girl who leaves home to seek out her estranged father. She teams up with a guy who is on the run from the law and they have recurring close encounters with the law, as well as folks who help them. After you see how the leading ladies in both films are framed and the way they are placed into circumstance, the parallels become complete.
I was disappointed that this film did not make a better effort to be unique.
