There's good news and bad news for beautiful Jennifer Day in the 2014 murder mystery, "Show Stopper". The good news is that she is sensational to watch, every bit the superstar she is portraying as the film's co-star. The bad news? She's dead.
Being dead doesn't stop Miss Day from sharing screen time with co-star Steven Bauer, the veteran actor whose Detective Vinnie Randall character is called upon to solve her murder. Confused? I don't want to give away spoilers, so watch the film, especially if you are a fan of Jennifer Day. Miss Day, the late-night TV singer, here plays "Sheera," a pop star who sings her own material (all of it available from Miss Day's own albums) but who gets knocked off to start the story. Enter Bauer to solve the case; between them Day and Bauer are in virtually every frame of "Show Stopper" via flashbacks and more. Bauer is a solid actor with good screen presence, who plays it straight in a series of interrogations that make up the gist of this movie that bills itself a "classic whodunit". There's a sizeable supporting cast of possible suspects who could all be after Sheera.
Miss Day is sensational, all gorgeous cascading hair, spectacular figure and an appealing wide-eyed expressive face. She has real screen presence too, whether playing sexy or sweet and friendly. In addition to brightening up the screen and writing her own music, Miss Day co-wrote and co-produced the film, proving she's not just another pretty face. Here's hoping we see more of Jennifer Day.
