Hello.
Today, I am going to explain a 2021 drama/horror/mystery film called, “Last Night In Soho”.
An aspiring fashion designer mysteriously begins seeing visions of a beautiful wannabe
singer in the 1960s.
But the glamour soon begins to fade, as she uncovers a far darker truth.
To know what happens, watch the complete video.
So, let’s start.
Eloise Turner, a teenager from Redruth, loves listening to the music of the Swinging Sixties.
She also has a great interest in fashion.
Eloise, also sometimes called “Ellie”, dreams of becoming a fashion designer.
She lives in Redruth, Cornwall with her grandmother.
Ellie’s mother was also a designer, who killed herself when Ellie was a baby.
She occasionally sees her mother’s ghost in mirrors.
Ellie got selected to study fashion at the London College of Fashion.
So Ellie begins packing to move to London.
Her grandmother warns Ellie about London, as she fears that Ellie too may get overwhelmed
by the city, and take the same path as that of Ellie’s mother.
Ellie assures her that she will be fine.
The next day, Ellie leaves for London to start a new life.
She gets into a taxi and tells the driver to take her to the student housing at Charlotte
Street.
The driver passes uncomfortable remarks to Ellie, as if it’s a completely normal thing
for him.
But Ellie is uncomfortable, as she has never experienced this in her hometown.
So she tells him to drop her at a shop.
After some walking, Ellie reaches the student housing.
There she meets her roommate, Jocasta.
Ellie learns that Jocasta is a smoker and alcoholic.
Ellie tries being friends with Jocasta and the others, but has trouble fitting in with
her peers.
She goes to the washroom to spend some time alone.
Jocasta also comes there with her friends, and talks bad things about Ellie and her mother,
not knowing that Ellie is also in the washroom.
Ellie realises that London is not what she expected it to be.
While walking back to her student housing, she sees an old silver-haired man leaving
the club.
Ellie returns to her room, hoping to get a good sleep.
But Jocasta brings a guy to mate with her, forcing Ellie to sleep outside.
Because of this, Ellie gets late for first class at the University.
Of all the students, John is the only student who is nice to her.
Unhappy with her new surrounding, Ellie decides to leave the student housing, and moves into
a bedsit owned by an elderly woman, Alexandra Collins.
At night, when Ellie goes to sleep, Ellie has a vivid dream in which she is transported
back in time to the 1960s.
She arrives at the Café de Paris, where she sees a confident young blonde woman named
Sandie, who aspires to become a singer at the club.
There she meets Jack, a young charming manager, who manages all the shows and events at the
club.
Sandie is instantly attracted to him, and dances with him.
Jack is impressed by her moves, and offers to arrange an audition for her at a different
club.
Sandie is very happy to finally get a chance, and kisses Jack.
He offers Sandie to drive her back home.
To Ellie’s surprise, Sandie also lives in the same house where she lives now.
The next morning, Ellie wakes up from her dream.
In her class, she designs a dress inspired by Sandie.
She also discovers a love bite on her neck, and realizes that it’s at the same spot
where Jack kissed Sandie.
Ellie is very happy, and wants to know what happens next in Sandie’s life.
John asks Ellie out, but she refuses as she wants to see Sandie in her vision.
Later that night, Ellie gets another dream in which she again sees herself as Sandie.
Jack comes to take her to a Soho nightclub, where he has arranged a singing audition for
her.
Sandie successfully auditions at the club.
Both Jack and the club owner are impressed by Sandie’s performance.
The club owner decides to give her the job.
Sandie is excited to start her career.
She begins a relationship with Jack and mates with him.
Ellie wakes up from her dream and returns to the same bedsit that she has rented.
Inspired by these dreams, Ellie decides to change her fashion just like Sandie.
She dyes her hair blonde, changes her fashion style to match Sandie’s, and even begins
talking like Sandie.
Ellie’s teacher is also impressed by her dress inspired by Sandie.
Later, Ellie realizes that the places Sandie visits in her dreams exist in real life.
Now that Ellie is spending a lot of money on her fashion, she decides to do a part-time
job at a pub.
There she is observed by the silver-haired man from earlier, who recognises Ellie’s
similarities to Sandie.
It means that Sandie is a real person who existed in the 1960s, and Ellie is living
Sandie’s life through her dreams.
The silver-haired man talks to Ellie and asks about her mother.
Ellie tells him that her mother is dead.
The old man thinks that Sandie is Ellie’s mother, which is why they both look similar.
Later that night, Ellie sees in her dream that Sandie is not living the life she had
hoped for.
The nightclub is full of men.
Instead of singing at the club, Sandie dances with the others.
Sandie is wearing revealing clothes, which are designed to appease the male audience.
It turns out Jack was never in love with Sandie.
He introduces Sandie to his male business associates, who wants to mate with her.
Sandie is shocked by this, and refuses to work as a prostitute.
Sandie is shocked to see the dark side of the club, where all the other girls are also
forced to mate with male clients as a prostitute.
Because of constant pressure from Jack, Sandie ends up mating with one of the clients.
Ellie wakes up from the dream, and is disturbed by her visions.
In her class, she destroys all her designs of Sandie.
Later that day, John goes to meet Ellie at the club, as he is worried about her.
Ellie doesn’t tell him about her visions, and tells him that she is fine.
The silver-haired man is also at the pub.
He talks to her again, and tells her to be careful.
In her following dreams, Ellie learns that Jack is a pimp, who manipulate young girls
and force them into prostitution.
Sandie is also trapped in this cycle, and is forced to mate with many male clients.
One night, Sandie meets an undercover detective, who offers to help her flee from the grasp
of Jack.
But Sandie refuses, saying that she no longer wants to get out.
Ellie wakes up from her dream, and sees many ghosts, who were once clients of Sandie.
Ellie is disturbed by this, and is afraid to fall asleep.
So she decides to go to a Halloween party with John.
Jocasta offers them drinks, after which they start dancing.
But even at the party, Ellie starts seeing ghosts everywhere.
She flees from the Halloween party with John.
Since Ellie doesn’t want to sleep, she invites John to come with her.
They return to her bedsit and begin mating.
But Ellie gets another vision, where she sees Jack threatening Sandie with a knife, and
eventually kills her.
Hearing Ellie scream, Alexandra gets to Ellie’s room, and tells John to leave.
She checks up on Ellie, and tells her she will talk to her in the morning.
Ellie is back into her senses, and goes to see Alexandra.
Ellie asks her if there was any girl named Sandie previously living in her room.
But Alexandra says she does not remember the names of all her tenants.
Ellie tries to continue with her life, but she still sees ghosts everywhere.
Wherever she goes, she finds the ghosts staring at her.
Scared, she goes to the police, and tells them everything about her vision and Sandie.
But she is not taken seriously by the detectives, as they think her mental condition is not
stable.
Ellie believes that the old silver-haired man is in fact Jack, who recognised her after
she changed her style to look like Sandie.
The detectives make fun of Ellie, as they think she is crazy.
But one of the female detectives assures her that she will try to find anything on Sandie.
But Ellie is not satisfied with the police’ assurance, and goes to a University library,
where she attempts to find newspaper reports about Sandie’s murder.
John also arrives at the library, and confronts Ellie.
She finally reveals to him about her visions and Sandie.
John decides to help her find any reports related to Sandie’s murder.
But they are unsuccessful, and cannot find anything related to Sandie.
Instead, she finds stories of local men who vanished without a trace.
The spirits again manifest in the library.
Scared, she attempts to attack them, and nearly stabs Jocasta in a panic.
Believing she must avenge Sandie, Ellie decides to confront the silver-haired man, who frequently
visits the pub where she works.
Thinking the man is Jack, she accuses him of killing Sandie.
But the man angrily denies killing Sandie, and leaves the pub.
But he is struck by a taxi while leaving.
The pub landlady reveals the man’s name to be Lindsay, who used to be an undercover
vice officer.
Ellie recalls encountering him in her dreams, who tried to help Sandie escape her life of
prostitution.
Devastated, Ellie decides to leave London for good.
John finds her and drives her back to Ms Collins’ house.
She informs Ms Collins that she is leaving.
Ms Collins offers her a tea, and tells her that she has nothing to worry about.
She also tells her that a detective came by asking about Sandie’s murder.
Ms Collins reveals that she is actually Sandie, and was never murdered.
She explains that Ellie’s prior vision of Sandie’s death was in fact a vision of Sandie
killing Jack when he threatened her with a knife.
After killing Jack, Sandie felt it was the right thing to do.
So she lured the men she was pimped to back to her room, and killed them.
She then hid their bodies in the house’s floorboards and walls.
Ms Collins also reveals she drugged Ellie’s tea, and intends to kill her to ensure her
silence.
In the scuffle, a cigarette from Ms Collins’ ashtray ignites a box of records.
John comes to check on Ellie, but gets stabbed by Ms Collins.
Ellie somehow manages to flee to her room, where the spirits of Sandie’s victims beg
Ellie to kill Ms Collins, but she refuses.
Ms Collins enters Ellie’s room, where she too sees the spirits, and is slapped by the
ghost of Jack.
Realising that the police are outside, she attempts to slit her own throat, but is stopped
by Ellie, who tells her she understands why she killed the men.
Ms Collins, as Sandie, tells Ellie to save herself and John from the growing fire.
Sandie realizes the crime she committed, and accepts her fate.
She chooses to stay in the building as it burns.
Sometime later, Ellie successfully becomes a fashion designer, as her dresses are showcased
at a fashion show.
She is congratulated backstage by her grandmother and John, who is now her boyfriend.
Ellie sees her mother’s spirit in a mirror, and then a vision of Sandie, who waves at
her and blows her a kiss.
So this was it for today’s movie.
