Über diesen Film

Two-time Academy Award winner Meryl Streep (It's Complicated) stars with Angela Bassett (Notorious) in a heartwarming, acclaimed true story of how one woman's musical gift affected those who least expected it. Roberta Guaspari (Streep) overcame the skepticism of everyone who didn't think she should be teaching violin to students in a tough inner-city neighborhood. But even after a decade of ever-growing popularity and countless success stories, Roberta and her kids must rise to meet an even greater challenge - budget cuts aimed at shutting down her valuable program for good. Also starring Aidan Quinn (Flipped) and Grammy winner Gloria Estefan in a stellar cast, this extraordinary story will inspire anyone who's ever thought their dreams were too far out of reach.

Bewertungen und Rezensionen

Great movie portrayed by a very talented actress Meryl Streep. Sad that music is not treated as important as sports programs. Little do school boards think about things of lasting value but put their money on short-term programs. An athlete will end up fat and out of shape, but even a fat and out of shape musician can still play music up until their retirement years. Athletes can't do that. Make sure your school boards are not elected based on their desire to be in power or politics!

Real life story of woman from the bronx and her successful Suzuki violin program. It was invited to perform in Carnaige Hall with several well.known violinists including Izaic Stearn.
