She gets her big break when a video of her performing onstage with him goes viral, but then a manager swoops in and her traditional singer-songwriter image (down to the framed cover of Carole King’s
Tapestry album on her bedroom wall) is renovated for something glossier and more synth-based. Why? Wouldn’t they just at least try what seemed to be working, or shouldn’t they at least explain why aren’t? And what does Ally actually think about this. She seems to not have any position beyond not wanting to be blonde (so in apparent compromise, dyes her hair
Vitamin C orange) and not wanting to have backup dancers. When asked point blank by her manager what she wants out of her career, she stammers. Her character never explicitly answers the question. (“I gotta talk to Jack,” is how she ends the conversation.)
Och här: "That’s an ultimately funny snatch of dialogue, because this movie has little to say beyond emphasizing the importance of having something to say."
