Alien at the Movies

The Greatest Hits

Harriet (Lucy Boynton) discovers that certain songs can transport her back in time literally. She relives the past through her romantic memories with her former boyfriend Max (David Corenswet). In the present, she is still grieving over Max’s death in a car accident that also put her in a coma for a week, is on medication, & attends an emotional support group. She has isolated & limited her life because she emotionally can’t move on. This is a quirky romantic comedy fantasy. She believes she actually can travel back in time & possibly can alter what happens. Can she save her boyfriend from dying? Or is she just delusional from the head trauma & her meds? Yeah, she sounds nuts. Then one day she meets the new guy, David (Justin H. Min), at her support group. He is infatuated with her & she is attracted to him too but she is still haunted by her dead boyfriend. She also constantly wears headphones because certain songs will transport her into the past leaving her body passed out in the present. Weird, right? Harriet takes us on emotional rollercoaster journey through time as she makes her history changing decision that will effect her future. This is a touching story for those who have loved & lost.
