I watched a really great independent, oscar winning (for original song,) film tonight called Once. It's a love story that basically revolves around a musical dream of the (two main characters.) I'm a music junky so I was sucked in immediately. I've been a fan of Glen Hansard since my little brother Noel introduced me to him a little over a year ago. I have no idea why it took me so long to watch this movie, but then again I can barely catch up on the shows I DVR, let alone watch an entire movie. Anyhow, the movie gave me chills, and had a swooning effect on me! Below I've included one of my favorite Glen Hansard songs from the movie. I think he's brilliant, and so is Marketa Irglova.
One other thing I should mention about my love for this movie--My Dad is from Ireland and I was fortunate to go and live with our family(still have lots of Hennessy & Moran clans over there!) for a few months about 10 years ago. There were several areas in the movie that I have been to so it brought back lots of memories of my wonderful holiday spent there. I have a happy place in my heart for Ireland, and the Irish~
