I watched this movie 'Once' last night. There are many things that I feel compelled to write about this movie.
There is no such a drama as other maid-in-Hollywood films. There is no artificial tear or heartbreak in this movie. It was rather monotonous capturing ordinary life strugging from ordinary life. The emotion and sentiment that two characters go through in the movie are the exactly same things that you and I would face in our daily life as an ordinary person. It is a story of you, a story of me, a story of us.
I can't even recall the name of the guy. I don't know whether he was ever called by his name in this movie. This guy is hidden behind the wall of his own world, just as most of us. He has his love, his wishes and dream. Yet, he is locked up in his routine life, longing for what he would pursue. The same story goes to the girl.
However, they have a truly special way of communicating to the world. Through their music. The music is an essential part of this movie, which both of them estalish communication to their heart and enjoy the freedom from their routine lives.
After all, their romance would not be materalised. They are bound to their own life, cannot venture anything further. The guy left for London to be with his girlfriend. The girl has her husband back from Czech. Are they happy after all? I am not sure. But I am sure they are relieved.
Ah, please go watch this movie and listen to its soundtrack. What I feel now.... this movie is gonna deliver a lot of emotions to me for a long time. I am watching it again tonight.
