There is another scene that is perhaps the most brilliantly made reveal ever. Many human beings have mommy or daddy issues. Often it is difficult to let go of the person that gave you the gift…

On the face of it, it makes perfect sense to slap a pop star into a feature film, sit back and watch his or her fans gobble up the tickets. Who needs marketing when you’ve got a built-in audience?
