Sunlight Jr.

Sunlight Jr. (2013) is an American drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Laurie Collyer and starring Naomi Watts and Matt Dillon. Melissa works the register at a roadside convenience store; her partner Richie is a paraplegic. When she turns up pregnant, it is briefly the only good thing going on. Then she loses her job and they lose their motel room.

Collyer gives nobody a safety net. Watts plays the role without softening — a woman who keeps moving because stopping is not an option. Norman Reedus appears in a supporting part. A spare, unvarnished film that asks more of its audience than most social dramas bother to. Stream Sunlight Jr. (2013) online on iFILM.
