Once
Once
is a niceish film if rather different.
You have to like the music, which I generally did though found mournful
in parts and accept that this is really an album put to film but as a new twist
on screen musicals it has its moments.
It almost seems like a reality in parts but much less scripted and
corny. Despite all the raves, I liked
it, rather than loved it. Dublin is the
other star in an understated way.
