Starman

Earth invites aliens to visit. Alien accepts the invite, by way of a dead American man. America makes it awkward. But the man’s widow is along for the ride… in more ways than one.

Look. This one had me in the first half. Cute. Quaint. Quirky. And an out-of-this-world performance from the one and only Jeff Bridges. But then at the very end–in a train car–this takes a weirdly 80’s turn and I can’t unhear the words or unsee the things. Took me completely out of it and there was no redemption to be found.
