Once
Kathlyn and I saw a movie this weekend that we really enjoyed. I think you would appreciate its warmth and genuineness. It’s called ONCE. The story is about a talented folksinger who plays for coins on the streets of Dublin. He meets a young woman, a Czech immigrant, and strikes up an unusual love affair. The music in the movie is also perfectly matched to the overall tone. I’m not usually a big fan of the one-guy-with-a-guitar type of folk music, but in this case the lyrics and the music really complement the movie.
Some of the language and the accents in the first ten minutes of the movie put me off a bit, but I’m very glad I got past it because the movie has a great deal of charm and wisdom about love, life and creative expression. Enjoy!
