Stardate 10.29.2020.E: It's The End Of The World For George Clooney ... And Maybe THat's Cause Enough To See 'The Midnight Sky'

Honestly, I've never been much of a fan of George Clooney.  Some of it could be his politics -- in interviews, he always seems a bit too eager to discuss the state of the world from his perspective, and I personally loath when actors use their platforms for that kind of thing -- and some of it could be that I've just never seen a break-out performance of his that was worth watching more than once.  If he appears in stories that I don't find compelling enough to explore further, then I tune him out -- generally speaking -- and I move on to folks who do tweak my interest.

Still, he maintains a solid measure of box office clout so long as studios are concerned, and maybe (just maybe) he can use some of that charisma to tap into the genre market with The Midnight Sky, a cinematic adaptation of the novel Good Morning, Midnight by Lily Brooks-Dalton.  Based on the book's Amazon profile, it would certainly appear to have a solid following (three hundred plus reviews and a strong near-five-point rating), so let's hope the actor can transcend his work in mainstream fare long enough to wipe the stink off of what he did to Batman And Robin in the 1990's.

For those interested, here's the trailer for the Netflix release which is slated for select theatres as well as the streaming service.

As always, thanks for reading ... and live long and prosper!
