Once (2006)


“Once” is a great film that I recommend to all the music lovers. The journey of “Guy” and “Girl” takes the viewers’ feelings up and down. It is a sad movie in which the two main characters are so right for one another, but other circumstances don’t allow them to be together. But that is the reality of life. The beautiful soundtrack “Falling Slowly” is what makes this film so great. When composing a meaningful song with a meaningful message, you can hear the performers have a stronger connection with the song, and therefore with their audience. What I have noticed about the films that I’ve watched for this course is that the artists seek for connections with others through their art. In this case, the Guy (guitar player) and the Girl (piano player) unify their talents to make a song (Falling Slowly) much better than if they had attempted to perform it by themselves. It connected with the audience.
