Vallie Sue (Aj Michalka), the wistful twentysomething hero of William Robert Carey's Angels in Stardust, is a dreamer.
She dreams of abandoning her trailer-park home and the irresponsible mother (Alicia Silverstone) whose carousing gets her down. She aspires to be a great writer, "like Agatha Christie," and decamp to the glamor of Oklahoma City. She confides in an imaginary friend, modeled on a TV cowboy, whom she pictures gracing a drive-in theater's long-abandoned big screen.
In other words, Vallie Sue dreams in clichés: Her life seems little more than a composite of shopworn thoughts and feelings, as if she were fashioned from spare parts on loan from romance paperbacks and daytime soaps.

That's an odd title if I'd ever seen one "Jesus in Cowboy Boots," and probably why the film was retitled as Angels in Stardust. Newcomer William Robert Carey directs and writes the comedy drama which stars Alicia Silverstone, Billy Burke and Aj Michalka. The story takes place on the Texas/Oklahoma border and follows an imaginative teenage girl who lives in a mystical and dangerous community who is struggling to realize her full potential and escape the place she was born in. Also in the cast are Chandler Massey, Jeanetta Arnette, Michael Spears, Dennis Cockrum, Amelia Rose Blaire, Sierra Fisk and Adam Cagley.
