![]() Lilyerd said his doctor told him last night the rare occurrence had changed him forever. He said when emergency personnel arrived they couldn't determine what happened and it wasn't until Lilyerd got to the hospital that he was able to tell them lightning struck him. She called 911 and rolled Lilyerd like a log onto his side, making sure not to twist his spine because she thought it could be damaged. She suspected he had fallen off his motorcycle because of his dilated pupils and bloody head injury. Jana, who is a nurse, rushed out to find her spouse unable to tell her what happened to him. ![]() "I then heard a moan, then it got irregular," she said. She wasn't perfect (far from it), but she did care for him.Īll in all, I enjoyed this film and recommend it.Initially, Jana said she thought her handy husband was working on something. The way she keeps calling him and hoping that its just some mistake. I also cried for his mom Cheryl (Alison Janney) when she finds out that he dies. It was sad of course that he died and didn't go on to college and do the things he wanted, but he did inspire people while on earth and I thought that was powerful in a way. I think its sweet that he wanted her to do something that SHE wanted. And as she responds that everyone laughed at her. And he talks about how in grade 2 she told everyone she wanted to be a ballerina, and he asks "What happened to that girl?". I really liked the scene with him and Claire (Sarah hyland) where he asks her why she thinks she'll never make it out of this town and do better for herself. But even so, I dont think he was always a jerk. She doesn't even seem to remember him most of the time. Not once, while he was April (hid fiancee who was 6 months pregnant) did he ever mention that he had a son. His mom was pretty much an alcoholic, his dad left them and didn't seem like he wanted to be a part of his life. I think it was his way of dealing with the crap in his life. Sure, Carson could kind of be a jerk sometimes but you could see why he was so sarcastic. I liked the message in their about staying true to yourself and how it's important to dream and have aspirations. I thought it was really funny but also poignant. But, for now, he needs to sharpen his story-telling skill first. In fact, Struck by Lightning feels like a memoir unfinished by Chris Colfer.Ĭhris has a bright future ahead of him and will definitely watch his future projects. I like the idea about how the main character tries hard to change his fellow peers' perception about their surrounding petty world but while embracing that idea, the movie also add additional storyline that is not necessary and lost its track. See, that is all I can come up for a summary for this movie. But before he had the chance to leave for college, he got struck by lightning and died. ![]() He then blackmailed all of the 'popular' kids in his school, with his and her own dirty secrets, and made them write for the magazine. ![]() Because of his obnoxious persona, he has no writers. In order to do so, he needs to make a literary magazine to be accepted to his dream university. I do like the idea of the film: smart kid dreaming to leave his isolated small town as soon as possible. While the movie offers a feel-good theme, the character development and storyline needs more tackling and expansion, like a lot. A decent debutant movie for Glee's Chris Colfer. ![]()
