The Starling review: Melissa McCarthy once again shows her talent for drama
A married couple, the Maynards, suffers after the death of their baby daughter to SIDS. The husband, Jack, is in a residential mental hospital while the wife, Lilly, remains at home to deal with her feelings alone.feels like a meal with all the right ingredients that just does not taste as well as it should. With an excellent cast and a talented crew, the message behind it does not quite land the way it intended.
The character of Lilly is an example of what happens when one prioritises the grief of someone else over themselves. And this is an important theme, but what I struggled with is that the character itself didn't have any nuance. She didn't feel like a real person, but like a character that someone wrote to teach the audience a lesson.
Kevin Kline does a great job as Dr Larry Fine, but once again, the character seems to fall flat. He has many comedic scenes in the film, but there is still a sense of melancholy around the character, which I wish we got to explore more. He says he got out of psychology because he didn't feel as if he was really helping anyone, but you see that he still has a passion for it in his interactions with Lilly.
