Notes et avis

If you can overlook the many scenes in this film showing non-musicians obviously pretending to play (no doubt with their off-screen real musician egging them on) then this slow-burner might be for you. Personally, I was slowly but surely drawn into the complex 'manage a quatre' with their passions, turmoils and personal compromises. With actors of the calibre on show here, it would be difficult not to enjoy this. Christopher Walken was particularly good - but I could watch him in anything. It is such a shame they could not find real musicians that can act, or actors that can play. A more authentic experience could have been achieved.

First ten seconds of movie. Never buy again!

Great movie.. love the wit... Love the film.
