Once
Holy shit. Let me tell you how in love I am with the movie Once.
It would be hyperbolic of me to say that it has paralleled my life — but absolutely it tangentially intersected enough to feel like a 90 minute sucker punch to the heart.
I do have to share one particular scene, in which The Guy tells The Girl to write the lyrics to a song he wrote — he’s tried, but it’s too romantic, and his words just aren’t right –
to which point I give you the song I wanted Monica to write and sing: Downshift
She chose not to, so you’re stuck with me.
