Instant Classic

After what I consider a fairly slow year in terms of quality films at the theater, I have struck gold and am on on a bit of a winning streak.

First, it was Stardust. I followed that up with the gripping and unforgettable western 3:10 to Yuma. But last night . . . the experience I had last night at the Angelika was beguiling.

Once was so intensely likable and emotively bittersweet, I had a hard time letting it go once the credits rolled. I find myself forgetting that the story wasn't real. This independent film from Ireland brims with genuine charm. The characters are authentic. The music is gripping. I'm not overstating it when I say it instantly became one of my all-time favorite films.

Watch the trailer and then go see this film. You won't regret it.
