Rating: 8/10 (10 June 2015)

The picture was somewhat hurt by the abrupt ending. We really don't know where the Knightley character is going when the film terminates.
That being said, Mark Ruffalo is just wonderful as the music executive, down on his luck, who is fired from the firm he started. Meeting the singer Knightley at a bar begins a character study of the two as they forge a relationship which will eventually lead to success, or at least we hope it shall.
Down on money, it is interesting to see how they form a band and make demonstrations of their music in various areas within the city.
Nice to see Haile Steinfeld back in film as Ruffalo's daughter here after several years following her Oscar nominated turn in a remake of "True Grit."
Katherine Keener, as Ruffalo's estranged wife, provides an interesting character study in rejection and ultimate return to Ruffalo's life when success is changed for the better. I would have liked to have seen her character more developed.
