This is a pretty bizarre movie. If you're a Dennis Hopper fan (i.e. you could sit through 90 minutes of Hopper improvising and overacting like there's no tomorrow) you'll enjoy WHITE STAR. Hopper plays Kenneth Barlow (not the guy from CORONATION STREET!), a freaked-out manager who's only client is a keyboard player called Moody (Terrance Robay). Barlow, formerly the manager for the Rolling Stones(!), tries staged riots (caused by THE LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT's David Hess) and even an assassination attempt to put Moody's record "White Star" into the charts. Apart from a few good riot scenes nothing really happens. Poor Romay is torn apart by Hopper's OOP performance, and worth seeing for that alone (pity Hess doesn't have more screen time, he's not in the film very much).
