Review title: A film for those who prefer "Juno" over "Enchanted"
Product review: If you are in the mood for a gentle, endearing movie, then "Once" is a gem. Realistic dialog, believable situations, acting that is entirely natural (likely to happen when the leads aren't actors but actual musicians!) in a story that isn't forced. If you want a Hollywood fairy tale, this is not for you. It is a modern musical in that songs are used in their entirety and to advance the story rather than just being relegated to the background soundtrack; the music and lyrics depict the emotions of the leads and are the heart and soul of their relationship.Thank God for Sundance which lets independent films like this find the audience they deserve. While $20 seems a lot to pay for a DVD these days, given that the entire budget of the film was $160 K, I can't begrudge anyone associated with "Once" a bit of profit if it will help them make another film like this!
