If only all Oscar acceptance speeches were as good as this
Tim and I watched Once last night. Its a tale of a Dublin busker who makes sweet music with a young Czeckoslovakian mother who is trying to make her way in a new city. It is possibly the most romantic movie I have ever seen.
It was made on a budget of 100k and the two leads Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova are musicians rather than actors so the whole thing feels very intimate and natural. Hansard and Irglova won the Oscar for the best original song and you would have to have a heart of stone not to be inspired by their acceptance speech. Watch to the very end as Irglova gets cut out by the music and they bring her back on:
