John Milton. Eindelijk Begin Again ook kunnen zien, Zwolle Once , een aantal jaar geleden, en Sing Street dit jaar, vallen beide in mijn rijtje met beste muziekfilms ooit gemaakt. Begin Again haalt dat niveau voor mij helaas niet. Het heeft zijn charme, maar maakte weinig indruk op me, in tegenstelling tot die andere films. De echtheid van Once, waarbij je soms niet meer kunt zien waar de fictie eindigt, ontbreekt hier. Dat is niet persé een probleem, want Sing Street heeft dat ook niet, maar voelde voor mij alsnog echter aan. Oprechter ook. Dat in beide andere films de muziek me een stuk beter ligt, valt Begin Again natuurlijk niet zozeer aan te rekenen, maar maakt onmiskenbaar veel verschil bij dit soort films. Ik kan Adam Levine's stem ook niet goed uitstaan, merkte ik weer.

  • Filmnation Entertainment to Sell John Carney's Sing Street In
    FILMNATION ENTERTAINMENT TO SELL JOHN CARNEY’S SING STREET IN BERLIN U2’s BONO AND THE EDGE TO BE INVOLVED IN LONGTIME FRIEND CARNEY’S LATEST PROJECT New York – February 6, 2014 – FilmNation Entertainment announced today that they will handle international sales for the newly announced project, SING STREET, by director/writer John Carney (ONCE, CAN A SONG SAVE YOUR LIFE?). Sales are beginning now at the European Film Market in Berlin. Following their longstanding relationship with Carney, U2’s Bono and The Edge will be involved in the film’s music and will be involved in the film itself. This will be a co-production with Anthony Bregman (Likely Story) and John Carney (Distressed Films) in partnership with Kevin Frakes (PalmStar) and Raj Brinder Singh (Merced Media Partners) in the US along with Paul Trijbits and Christian Grass (FilmWave) in the UK. WME are handling the US rights for the film. "John Carney has carved out a genre of his own -- beautiful, soulful movies packed with longing, love, and music. Sing Street is his Cinema Paradiso -- the musical film answer to where it all came from," said Bregman. The film, which is semi-autobiographical, inspired by John’s life and love for music, tells the story of 14-year-old "Cosmo", a kid growing up in 80’s Dublin. Cosmo must break free of a home strained by his parents’ relationship and money troubles, deal with his drop-out older brother’s antics, and survive a new public school where the kids are rough and the brothers are tougher.

  • “When Your Mind's Made Up”: Metrical Conflict in John Carney's Once
    “When Your Mind’s Made Up”: Metrical Conflict in John Carney’s Once Keywords: music, film, Once Topics: music Format: paper Gene K. Willet, Ph. D. Baldwin-Wallace College Conservatory of Music 275 Eastland Road Berea, OH 44017 [email protected] “When Your Mind’s Made Up”: Metrical Conflict in John Carney’s Once Abstract The independent Irish film Once (2006) won over audiences and critics alike in 2007 receiving awards at the Sundance Film Festival and the Dublin Film Festival, as well as, winning the 2008 Independent Spirit Award for best foreign film. The modern-day musical directed by John Carney and starring Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová owes much of its success to its Grammy-nominated soundtrack that was written and performed by the two actors/musicians. The Academy Award winning “Falling Slowly” is the best know song from the film but the soundtrack is filled with songs that are emotionally wrenching and musically complex. One such song is ““When Your Mind’s Made Up”. The song, about two lovers who constantly fight, takes place in a tense, climatic scene where the group of street musicians has finally procured time at a recording studio and attempts to record their first song. The song’s 5/4 meter is strictly interpreted by the piano as five simple beats, each beat divided into two equal parts, while the rest of the ensemble interprets the 5/4 as mixed meter: a measure of compound (three equal divisions per beat) plus simple meter. This metrical conflict that pits two parts of the ensemble against each other (neither willing to yield) embodies the conflict in the lyrics and underscores the tension at the beginning of the scene.
