Natalie Portman in 'Lucy in the Sky': Toronto Review
is the odd film that starts cosmically big and gradually becomes narrower and more conventional as it goes along, to diminishing returns. This first feature film by Noah Hawley, the main driver of the television series, brims with offbeat storytelling and visual ideas that initially combine to quietly appealing effect.
Although Lucy’s got an ultra-supportive family waiting for her, a simple, normal life just doesn’t seem like it’s going to do it for her any longer. The first thing she does is sign up as a candidate for a return trip, possibly in three years at the earliest.
But most noticeable is his frequent alteration of aspect ratios based upon what he’s trying to achieve in a given scene. When the world seems to be opening up to Lucy, everything expands to widescreen. But when things become intimate and/or troubled, Hawley narrows the proceedings to what appears to be a 1.37x1 aspect ratio. This alternation can happen within a minute or two.
