Forever Lulu (2000)
7/10
Melanie!
31 July 2004
Again. Does she ever fail? If you are reading this 'girl', please keep your humility - therein lies your brilliance and genuine qualities.

How can you build a movie around one actor? You have to get the perfect actor-actress and then find the right script.

This isn't a great movie. No. But watch the girl. Melanie is no youngster, but her spirit is too young, too brilliant to hide!

You can't avoid watching her. She is compelling. Few players can match her on any level. Thespian espectacular!

So, enjoy performance, even though a lot of the other film elements don't rise to excellence. Melanie is superb, and is she ever bad? It takes a very special quality of commitment to excel and elate when the material around you is only mediocre.
