but the whole film gives me the feeling of a genius.
What it tells us is that this is a genius, you can watch it if you like, but this is a level you can never reach. I think that's where the whole movie fails the most.
The life of genius keeps us from getting this movie into our minds.
However, the OST of this movie is still very good. The first part of the second Bach&Break of the OST does not have a perfect connection between the classical and rock parts, but it is this defect that makes this song very good. The vocals of the lead vocals stand out quickly after the cello, and the rhythm guitar and bass make this song even better. But the most outstanding part is that the cello is added in the climax part, which makes the song more powerful and clearly highlights the charm of the whole song.
Dueling Guitars is a song that perfectly combines modern ballads with fingerstyle. In the front part, one ballad and one fingerstyle play is like a father and son whispering a little secret between them at night. Then in the latter part, the two playing techniques are combined, and the speed is accelerated. Just like when the father and son talked about the happy place, they couldn't help laughing and were very happy. The music also became very light.
August's Rhapsody is really good. I'm not a classical music lover, I usually only listen to Hisaishi's modern atmosphere, or classical music that can make us understand a little bit more. But this symphony incorporates a lot of natural, artificial air. It speaks classical music, modern classical music, and singing together. Especially in the singing part, I especially like it, with the quiet childish voice gradually pushing the song to a small climax, and then immediately quiet down. Enter a bland but very romantic part. Seems to let us see the joy of the three of them together, it's beautiful. At the end, the voice of the little male protagonist reappears. This quiet feeling is like the beginning of the film, and the little male protagonist is enjoying himself in a reed.
I also like Moondance very much. The male lead singer's magnetic voice is reflected in a delicate and romantic way under the foreshadowing of harmonica and guitar.
In general, I still like this film, but because of some of the factors mentioned at the beginning, my evaluation of it is not too high, but I still recommend some friends who like music to watch it.
