new wave comfort

Director John Carney is a geek who has always used his musical talent to whitewash film talent. The folk songs he wrote didn't impress me before, and I didn't like his first two works, "Once" and "Go Again." "Meet You in New York". This time, he extended his tentacles to the new wave of the 1980s, which directly touched my heartstrings. The original songs of the film and those classic old songs were perfectly blended, which made people unable to stop being excited. The narrative is still relatively straightforward, and the story is not too new, but the portrayal of the heroine and the male supporting role is very successful, so even if the whole film has an unreal idealization, it does not reduce the perception.
