Once, directed and written by John(虽然我查的也是这个名字,但听着总像是Jim) Carney, was one of the standouts this year’s sundan's film festival. And it’s easy to see why. It’s a completely charming movie, small, modest, a little bit anecdotal, making no great claim for itself, making no big dramatic points. It just works on every level. It’s a simple enough story takes place in Dublin. It’s about two people that their names are never given, one is a street musician played by Glen(我查到的名字也是这个,但我听的总像是blen) Hansard, the other is a Czech immigrant by Marketa Irglova.
What developed between them in a romance of sorts, but it really takes place entirely through their shared love of music.
The two main performers are really singers and song writers and they're performing their own compositions. And that gives the movie a special appeal. Even if it’s not quite your style of music, it’s a kind of earnest, folk pop, little bit like// maybe. It still really works because it shows how much these people care about this project about this music.
It animates the movie. It makes it become alive and gives you something to care about.
The thing about Once is really special is that characters singing very real. Without ever singing dull, their problems are not earthshaking. There is nothing melodramatic or overdone about it. And yet, it just works. You can’t take your eyes off these people you care very much about what's gonna happen to them. And it holds you in a delicious kind of suspence even though the stakes don’t seem to be all that high. Because they are high for these people, these are their lives after all.
You're never quite sure how it’s gonna end up. But when it does end, you feel like you really seeing something wonderful and almost perfect
