Prospect
{4/5} “You know, eventually you’re going to have to trust me.”
Prospect, released in 2018
Damon and his teenage daughter Cee have been in space for years. When their ship experiences trouble and they land unexpectedly, Damon locates a gem that other prospectors have carelessly left behind. Cee thinks they should cash in and leave this life behind but her father thinks they should stay, looking for a bigger collection of gems. Then they run into a couple of dangerous people.
Although it’s a bit slow at times, it’s different and I wanted to see what would happen.
It’s about perseverance, staying calm, and dealing with dangerous individuals.
The alien planet scenes were filmed in Washington State.
It has a great look to it, and young actor Sophie Thatcher is one to watch.
Stars Jay Duplass and Pedro Pascal. Directed by Christopher Caldwell and Zeek Earl (their first movie). The atmospheric music is by Daniel L. K. Caldwell.
