A friend suggested me to watch this movie and I never regret watching it. It is not musical movie but about a guy that wants to become a singer so there are few good songs it in. Below is the synopsis of the movie.

“Once is a 2006 Irish musical film written and directed by John Carney. Set in Dublin, this naturalistic drama stars musicians Glen Hansard (of popular Irish rock band The Frames) and Markéta Irglová as fictional struggling musicians. Collaborators prior to making the film, Hansard and/or Irglová composed and performed all but one of the original songs in the movie.

The film has received awards and extremely enthusiastic reviews. Shot for only $160,000, it was very successful, earning substantial per-screen box office averages in the United States. The film's original music has been nominated for an Academy Award and also received two Grammy Award nominations.”


If you like the band like Travis, Keane or Coldplay, you will love this movie and the band. They are not well known except in Ireland or UK. But I go crazy about their song now. My friend has been searching high and low for the OST CD but it’s sold out. This movie is simple story but it will give you great impact due to the lovely songs. It is not too romantic for a guy to watch it even thou it is sort of the love story. It is so real and potrait our everyday life. Please watch the movie and you know what I'm talking about. I have attached a scene featuring the song "Falling Slowly" that is the best & touchy song of all. It was nominated in the Oscar.
