So I'm already behind a day... I hate when I miss one day of doing something. It makes it harder to start back up again, and quite frankly I just get lazy. Haha. So today I won't review a product to make up for yesterday, instead I'll talk about a movie that I found while going through my Dvd's that I'm preparing to rewatch. Since I keep all my movies in CD binders, I don't have the plethora of cases to see all the titles right away, so I often forget I even have certain Dvd's. It's almost like finding money in a pants or jacket pocket. Or simply just going through old junk in an attic, when you get really excited when finding an old toy or something like it.
So the movie is Once. With unknowns Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova. Reading up on wiki, they had a budget of $160,000. So it's definitely not a blockbuster, but I absolutely love it everytime I have watched it. It's a beautiful love story that isn't a typical love story. Without giving anything away, these two combine and tell a story like non other. I love the indie feel to it. The song "Falling Slowly" is remarkably beautiful and they actually won the 2007 Academy Award for Best Original Song which I was completely ecstatic about. I don't know about the real life couple now, if they are a couple still, but they were at that time which makes me love the movie even more. Who doesn't love when celebs hook up with costars? Like that ever happens right? It seems sweeter because they aren't the typical hollywood actors/celebs.
So I highly recommend this movie. The music again is beautiful and wonderful. It feels real and genuine and will leave you simply feeling. I hope you enjoy!
