Product Description Celeste is a 13-year-old music prodigy who survives a horrific school shooting in 1999. Her talent shines through during the memorial service when she sings a song that touches the hearts of the mourners. Guided by her sister and a talent manager, the young girl transforms into a rising pop star with a promising future. Eighteen years later, Celeste now finds herself on the comeback trail when a scandal, personal struggles and the pitfalls of fame threaten her career. Review The moment is unnerving: 15-year-old Celeste (Raffey Cassidy) lies in bed with a man she just met, a man much older than she is who is drifting in and out of pill-induced unconsciousness. A piece of silver fabric is wrapped around her throat, and her eyes are smudged with mascara. She looks very young and very tired, staring at the camera, delivering a monologue in a flat New York-accented voice, about how she loves pop music because "I don't want people to think too much. I just want them to feel good." She speaks of her recurring dream where she's careening through a long tunnel towards an unknown and probably bad destination, and her vision of a kind of music that makes it all go away. "Vox Lux," written and directed by Brady Corbet, whose "The Childhood of a Leader" was one of the best films of 2016, mixes small quiet moments like this with hyper-stylized sequences, raw emotional confrontations, music videos, plus an entire concert, complete with backup dancers and a chanting cult-like audience. The film is an onslaught, sometimes silly, sometimes profound, but always riveting and emotional, and dazzlingly sure of itself. - Sheila O'Malley (4 Stars) --https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/vox-lux-2018 Vox Lux begins in utterly chilling fashion with a Columbine-style high school massacre. Celeste (played as a schoolgirl by teenage English actress Raffey Cassidy) is a survivor and also seemingly one of the few close friends of the killer. At a memorial service for the victims, she sings a song, channels all the collective grief of the country by doing so and is immediately catapulted to nationwide fame. Early on, at least, she is kind and full of grace , even if she does have a seemingly more talented older sister, Eleanor (Stacy Martin). Years pass. The innocent young Celeste turns into the very jaded adult played by Portman. She has a teenage daughter, Albertine (confusingly also played by Raffey Cassidy) whom she dotes on but continually risks alienating with her erratic behaviour. Portman was in Venice for the premiere. At the film s press conference, she denied that Celeste was a monster, suggesting instead that her character was suffering from trauma. I've definitely been interested in the psychology of what violence does to individuals, Portman reflected. Unfortunately, it has been a phenomenon now that in the United States, we experience regularly with the school shootings which are, as Brady has put it to me before, a sort of civil war that we have in the US. She spoke of the way small acts of violence can create widespread psychological torment in American children. - Geoffrey Macnab (4 Stars) --https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/reviews/vox-lux-film-review-natalie-portman-pop-star-black-swan-brady-corbet-a8895836.html About the Director Writer, director, and actor Brady Corbet has spent over a decade amassing one of the most diverse, interesting and impressive resumes in the industry.
