Does anyone recall seeing advertisements last fall for Fox Searchlight Pictures' Lucy in the Sky starring Natalie Portman?
Well, you're not the only one! I never even heard of the movie until I received a press release about it being released to Digital HD on Dec. 17th. For some reason, I was under the impression the movie was about space exploration, so I agreed to watch a digital screener.
The film centers around Astronaut Lucy Cola (played by Portman), who returns to Earth after being on her first mission in space. While all the other astronauts seem to be just fine from the mission, Lucy seems to be a bit loopy! She makes an attempt to go back to a normal life with her husband and niece but all she can think about it is going back to space.
Despite being advised to take things slow upon her return, Lucy is determined to make the cut for the next NASA space mission, even it means nearly drowning just so she can beat an underwater test record. Things take a turn for the worse when she begins an affair with a fellow astronaut, Mark Goodwin (played by Jon Hamm), which is against NASA's rules.
What starts out as a fun fling, quickly turn into an obsession, resulting n Lucy going completely mad.
