One of my favorite movies ever

Rating: 8/10 (23 September 2019)

Usually, having a script with too many dialogue, specially with talking heads is an absolute avoid. This film Has a fair amount of that. However, if a film was to break that rule, it would've to be broken just like Lyrics and Music did. The dialogue is fascinating. It's witty, it's funny, it's different with each character... Alex Fletcher and Sophie Fisher would never bore no one. And that's the second strenght of this movie: the characters are just as greatly crafted as the dialogue itself. They're very different from each other, multidimensional, with very clear personalities for each, and so, so authentic. It's so easy to empathize with them that I always find myself feeling what the characters are feeling, and worrying about them. In fact, I'd dare to say Alex Fletcher and Sophie Fisher are two of the most likable characters I've ever seen in a movie. As such, their whole journey is a ton more engaging, because the audience is willing to follow them both anywhere they go. Finally, the songs are great. They heighten the already great script and make this movie one of my tops ever.
