If you have not seen this film then you have missed a real treat!
It's only 85 minutes long , was filmed mainly on handy cams and cost c£100k and the music won an Oscar!
It's a simple story, boy meets girl etc..., it's a musical in that it's full of songs. Songs which are beautifully written, well performed and give the film a real feeling of the hope the underpins it. Hope of a future as musicians, hope of love and hope of a fresh start.
You'd have to be mad to starting watching it and not finish it!

Then you know that MK & I are both completely and utterly cray-azy!
We both found "Once" to be poorly-filmed, naively acted with trite songs.
But hey, variety makes the world go around!
