It’s not a man’s outfit though the rather odd Miriam Rockwell (Weaver), Jennifer’s mother, does turn wild-eyed at one point, asking Mike why she doesn’t dress like a woman. It’s a man’s name, and she’s always wearing the same all-black trouser suit. I’ve never read it, though I tell people I have, and maybe another me in a parallel universe actually has. Who doesn’t want to watch Patricia Clarkson? I’d pay to listen to her reading aloud from Stephen Hawking’s A Brief History Of Time – which might have helped me actually. Still, that feeling of uneasiness that I felt during and after watching it is always worth seeking out in movies.Īnd its performances (particularly the magnetic Clarkson and a slightly crazed Jacki Weaver), and the sheer exuberance with which Morley chucks yet more suggestions into the cosmology pot, ultimately win through.
It’s often frustrating, sometimes plodding, and the dialogue at times borders on parody. It’s a film that by turns feels both signposted and directionless. There’s masses going on in terms of ideas, some of which seem basic and others complex.
Out Of Blue is something of a glorious mess. Jennifer, even after she dies, continues to exist, whether as the ashes she wants chucked in a rubbish bin to eventually become part of someone else, or alive in a parallel universe as Jennifer. The death of a star leads to new life in the universe, astrophysicist Dr Jennifer Rockwell (Mamie Gummer) tells us. That’s a side issue though, as the key themes are so enormous: time, life, death, the meaning of reality, identity. This is, the opening titles state, “a Carol Morley film”. It’s a theory in physics, but it’s also interesting because of what it says about art and its audience.
