Movie Review: The High Note - The stakes are low and the proceedings light and fluffy.
Pop culture is conditioned to crave the newest and, often, youngest thing. Ariana Grande has the number one song on the Billboard charts right now. She’s 26 and has already been around, love to tell the story of an aging star clinging to her last grasps of fame. Oh, let’s all look on her with pity. How sad that she cannot accept her fate and fade gracefully away.is not that kind of movie. Grace Davis is a megastar. Yes she’s over 40 with no recent hits.
Enter Grace’s assistant, Maggie , who gets Grace’s dry cleaning, picks up her smoothies and breaks in her uncomfortable shoes. Maggie, or Margaret as Grace insists on calling her, is a a walking encyclopedia of music trivia, be it songs about California or who sang the original version of “The First Cut is the Deepest.” But what Maggie really wants to do is produce and she’s secretly produced an alternate version of Grace’s live album. A life-long fan of Grace’s, she believes in her music.
Johnson, the daughter of actors Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith, gets the more fully developed character. Soft spoken and kind, Maggie is not how a driven career woman is typically portrayed. Maggie wants to produce music because she loves it. Her desire to bring out the best in her artist may seem like fan fiction to many in the music industry, but like most fantasies, it’s nice to imagine it as the truth.
