That Music Brings us together

I have been very picky about movies recently, so I may have a slight prejudice when I watched it, but the beginning is really shocking. The sun and the wind blow through the sound of the reeds. I don't even understand what it means at the beginning. The speed of the story is very slow. Although I believe in love at first sight, then the speed and reason of the hero and heroine in the story still make me feel unreal. The most important part is the crossover of rock and classic. The connection between the two different styles of music is perfect. The most impressive thing is that august stood in the middle of the street and listened to the symphony fragments of the noisy life in the small church. The portrayal of music always fascinates me. The ending of the story is very happy, and it also echoes the beginning and the end, which is in line with the style of American movies and satisfies the majority of the audience who have seen 3/4 of the movie already tearful and can't wait to pray for a family reunion. The mysterious power brought by wish music, I hope that one day it can also appear in my real life
