Sing for Marion

Watch The Trailers

This small movie first trailer stealing attention through a simple but touching. When I then saw that one of my favorite UK artists: Gemma Arterton incorporated in this project so I decided to try watching it. Is indie drama directed by Paul Andrew Williams is awasome trailer?

Arthur and Marion are two of the couple who had lived together for a long time despite having two contrasting characters. Marion cheerful, always had a lot of friends around him while Arthur is always itself, grabbed, and its relationship with the child just is not anywhere near hell. Marion realized that the time in the world not long after the disease recur. Even so he still forced himself to take old people choir led by Elizabeth. He did not want to lose with the disease until the last moment.

Arthur was originally banned the Marion to continue joining such activities but in the end he relented on Marion stubbornness. Thanks to a powerful solo performed by Marion, their choir team eventually selected to enter the race. After all, along with the pain of Marion he would not be able to join the choir group during the competition. So who could take over his position? Is Arthur could open her heart in the end?

Looking at the relationship of Arthur and Marion I was reminded of the relationship of Carl and Elie in Up. From the above statement I believe I just revealed my highest praise for acting from Terence Stamp and Vanessa Redgrave. Chemistry of these two aging actor in an extraordinary charge each other. Very good performance of the two main actors (especially Redgrave, it's hard not to fall in love with a character so full of life and spirit) makes two other junior actors: Gemma Arterton and Christopher Eccleston so closed.

I feel that the scenario of Paul Andrew Williams was a little too focused on the relationship between Arthur and Marion in the first half of the film so that when one element is removed in mid-movie director can no longer cover it, although by linking Arthur to Elizabeth and James. Not I said the relationship between the three is bad, just that the relationship of Arthur and Marion had been so strong that the second half of the film is noticeably deteriorated. Anything as sweet as  Gemma Arterton and Christopher Eccleston, both can not match the charisma of Vanessa Redgrave.

I am quite impressed by Paul Andrew Williams who never impose the songs in the film sung by auto-tune style but more like Glee singing live alone. It is so made ​​that not all of the songs performed in the film is so good, some even discordant, but it seems like all the songs that feel personal and completely sung from the heart of the character. There were two highlights in the film is sung by Vanessa Redgrave and Terence Stamp, and both therapeutic moments in this film - do not be shy if you tear it melted in the sectio
