music as redemption

After John Carney, music production took another notch. After watching this film, I am willing to put a lot of music in it and play it on the iPod.
The setting of the heroine fits Keira Knightley's temperament very well. A mature and sensible role is not her dish. The accurate label is talented, attitude and independent.
The heroine who came to New York with her new rock star boyfriend was quickly abandoned by her boyfriend. On the eve of leaving New York, the heroine sang in a bar and was discovered by down-and-out musicians, and the two began to play on the street for a record video. The music produced becomes a surprise, a surprise that brings a lucrative income to the producers, and directly changes the lives of the participants in the process. The musician reunited with his estranged wife. Keira Knightley's heroine won back the lead, but decided to leave and start over.
Movies with good music have a natural advantage at the box office, but music as the finishing touch still needs to be matched with a tense storyline. The director's control of the story still needs to be improved, and the structure is slightly loose. But none of this can fundamentally shake the independent power of music itself. CeeLo Green's appearance was quite amazing. The music placed in the story is joy and redemption. It's still a delightful movie.

    After watching La La Land, when I thought of this film, I felt that I had to give it five stars, because compared to La La Land, I still miss the feeling of this movie more.

    #SIFF# I'm sorry that Uncle Mark is so adorable. I'm full of "Ahhhhhhhhhh". I only see him when standing on the edge of the camera where I play bass! The song is very, very good (anyway, when the song is good, I will impulsively give Gao to pay attention to me)! The plot is not as scattered as once, the idea of ​​urban environmental sound is very interesting + the dynamics among the band members are awesome!
