Matter-Eater Lad Posted July 1, 2008 Author Share Posted July 1, 2008 I hope you like it, and if you do you can buy the songs from the movie on Itunes. I bought the CD and it's amazing as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heyyyohhh Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I loved this film! Quite simple and I think that's what made it beautiful to me. Just a story of two strangers really that get united by music ("Falling Slowly" is a great song and I was so happy Glen and Marketa(?) won the Oscar for it!)

freckles Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I loved this film! Quite simple and I think that's what made it beautiful to me. Just a story of two strangers really that get united by music ("Falling Slowly" is a great song and I was so happy Glen and Marketa(?) won the Oscar for it!) I think I've already made a thread about this movie but never mind :P Anyway, I really enjoyed the film, but I think that it has no sense for people who don't like Glen's music. Markéta (yes, you've spelled it right ;) ) comes from my country and they have a concert here July 28th. I'm really looking forward to this concert :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giuly2E Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Oh I'd LOOVE to see the movie..unfortunately I only had the chance to hear the soundtrack as far as now... the film should have been in the cinemas on the 30th of May in Italy...but no one of the 2 cinemas in my city showed it:cry:.... I am still looking for the DvD everytime I enter a shop but i never find it...I guess I'll have to order it trhough internet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heyyyohhh Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 You should be able to get the dvd online for cheap now. I just bought my own copy today at Barnes & Noble because it was in their $9.99 promo sale. As for the movie not making sense to people who don't like Glen's music, I actually didn't hear of Glen until I saw this movie (I'm sorry!) and I think it was better that way for me. But now that I have, I'm glad :) He's great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pseudonym Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I just saw it. All I can say is...WOW. This may now be my favorite movie. I'm listening to "Falling Slowly" from the soundtrack as I type. This movie was so beautiful. It had pure honest love and emotion and wasn't shy in sharing even the slightly uncomfortable moments between two people with obvious chemistry. The music was better than most Coldplay music even, and I'm not afraid to say that. The entire film was flawlessly made, and should be seen by anyone who needs to realize that not all films are what you see today. This movie is brilliant story-telling and should no doubt be seen more than "once" as the reviews all say. This is a movie that is definitely worth taking the time to see. Thanks to everyone who made this move, it is one of the greatest ever made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denise Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I saw it two weeks ago, I don't know if it's just because I love Ireland and irish music but god this movie is just amazing, simple and I was on the verge of crying at the end. I love how you can tell they were so deeply connected yet nothing happened (at least phisically) between them :nice: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnspieler1012 Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 It's one of my favorite movies of all time, it didn't follow any of the typical hollywood plot trends, not superficial, just honest, realistic and beautiful all the way through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matter-Eater Lad Posted July 9, 2008 Author Share Posted July 9, 2008 If you like falling slowly, try "when your minds made up" another amazing song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifi Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 If you like the music, check out glens band The Frames! They are brilliant and have 10 years worth of music to make your ears smile..... :thinking::lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
