The movies that John Carney has created have been adored by this author for years. They all have music as their essential theme and also evoke genuine emotion and familial drama. A new film is coming out now called "Flora and Son" and we can't wait to see it. Here are a few of Carney's previous films:
Once- A wonderful flick which won an Oscar for best song that was about a couple of musicians who meet and create and develop a relationship in Dublin.
Begin Again - This was a great example of the unlikely coupling of musicians in a crazy environmant of big city life, including big time actors like Keira Knightley, Mark Ruffalo, Adam Levine and Hailee Steinfeld. Wonderful story with excellent acting.
Sing Street - Another great Dublin story about a young lad who has to create a punk musical band to pursue a girl after he convinces her he's a musician.
Can't wait to see "Flora and Son."
