Nisha Ganatra's "The High Note" is a movie with its heart in the right place and appeal to spare, but it doesn't quite transcend its story's predictable course. The film gets teasingly close to bringing up some hefty conversations about women in the music business, but in the end, those notes stay flat, playing more like a melody that doesn't stick around for long.
In "The High Note," Maggie (Dakota Johnson) works day and night to cater to every whim of legendary singer Grace Davis (Tracee Ellis Ross). Beyond her all-consuming role as a personal assistant, Maggie dreams of making the jump to working as a music producer, even going so far as to mixing some of Grace's demos and pitching her own ideas of what her boss should do next with her career. Maggie's ambitious plans rub some in Grace's entourage the wrong way, like her manager Jack (Ice Cube) and mooching house-sitter Gail (June Diane Raphael), but she doesn't stop there. She takes on a new up-and-coming singer named David (Kelvin Harrison Jr.) as a second client, hoping to prove she has what it takes to make him a star. Of course, nothing is ever so simple in showbiz.
Screenwriter Flora Greeson makes her feature debut with "The High Note," which feels a draft or two away from something more than a light workplace drama. Maggie's Pollyanna-ish belief that hard work and sharing her opinions as an assistant will get her ahead feels too idealistic for someone who's been working as an assistant for years. There's something too cavalier in Maggie's character, who at one point inserts herself into the studio to prove herself, knocking down a well-established male producer in the process. Jack scolds her for the outburst, but that could have meant the end of her gig. If she had been acting that way all this time, it's likely she might not have made it this far in her career as a personal assistant. When did she stop playing the hierarchy game and try to level up? It's a shame that Greeson's story briefly approaches the subject of race and age, two major barriers for women like Grace, and I wished they were given more time to explore Grace's feelings on the subject in more than just one line. But it's easier for the character to wave away her underling instead of having a painful, perhaps necessary, exchange with the millennial go-getter who still believes showbusiness is a meritocracy.
Unsurprisingly enough, Ross runs away with "The High Note." Her expressive reactions tell the audience so much about her character without explaining it. When Maggie confronts her after a disastrous meeting with record executives, Grace gives her an exasperat
