Uplifting singer/songwriter musical, unlike any other musical

Rating: 9/10 (14 January 2008)

I watched this at a friend's house last night and we were all amazed with the film. The music is very poignant and uplifting, in a moody, melancholy way. It is the kind of film that, if you are an aging musician, will remind you of your best days hanging out with strangers, creating great spontaneous music and meeting interesting people while you wander and travel. My friends who are not musicians said it made them appreciate music more as an extension of a persons character. Also, I will second what someone else said here that it has a great non-Hollywood non-cliché ending as well. Kudos to all involved in the film for a job well done.
