Lucy in the Sky

After returning to Earth, astronaut Lucy Cola (Natalie Portman) finds it hard to reconnect with her old life, including her husband (Dan Stevens), resulting in an affair with another astronaut (Jon Hamm). After a successful career in TV, Noah Hawley’s highly anticipated feature film debut as director was a disappointing drama inspired by the peculiar 2007 Lisa Nowak scandal. Portman is very good as a fictitious version of her, an unhinged NASA engineer, but getting under her skin remains hard throughout the story. Still, arresting visuals is a bonus.

2019-U.S. 124 min. Color. Part Widescreen. Directed by Noah Hawley. Cinematography: Polly Morgan. Cast: Natalie Portman (Lucy Cola), Jon Hamm (Mark Goodwin), Zazie Beetz (Erin Eccles), Dan Stevens, Colman Domingo, Ellen Burstyn… Tig Notaro.

Trivia: Co-produced by Hawley and Reese Witherspoon, who at one point was going to play the lead.
