Once Review

Once is a movie that arrests your attention right from the first scene when Glen Hansard's voice shakes you up in the first song. The pain in his voice is evident even before you know anything about the movie. From there on, we are introduced to the little world of two nameless musicians who bond over music.

Once is a movie made on shoe string budget using cheap cameras and that adds a new layer of visual aesthetics to the proceedings. The two lead actors do a wonderful job. Hansard is a lovable heart-broken guy and ‎Markéta Irglová plays the charming heroine. The movie is further enhanced by a stupendous soundtrack with the Oscar winning song "Falling Slowly" getting firmly etched in the heart. This movie has charm, beauty, warmth and most of all it has its heart in the right place.
