A Simple Song

Rating: 10/10 (21 October 2017)

must have been the alternative title to this Film (with a capital F).
There is a fine line kept throughout the narrative: somewhere between the real and surreal, making the identification with the characters easier than unusual, while allowing for most surreal situations and dialog.
Rachel Weisz, Michael Caine, Harvey Keitel and Paul Dano really brought their respective roles to life. The many small roles were enriching as well, especially Jane Fonda's wonderful cameo!
But there were two other stars which made this Film a masterpiece in artistic collaboration: the cinematographer Luca Bigazzi, whose every frame is worthy of a wall to hang from and David Lang whose original music brought it all together.
Writing, directing, filming, performances and music, in this particular case, make for great Cinema I was touched to tears.
