Begin Again

About This Movie

Begin Again is this charming blend of comedy and music that captures the bittersweet moments of starting anew. The film has a laid-back vibe, almost like a stroll through New York City, with its streets and local music scenes playing as much a part in the story as the characters themselves. Keira Knightley and Mark Ruffalo deliver performances that feel genuine, with Knightley’s raw, heartfelt songwriting contrasting nicely against Ruffalo's grizzled industry veteran. The pacing has this nice ebb and flow, letting you linger on poignant moments without feeling rushed. The use of practical effects in the music scenes gives it an organic touch. It's the small, intimate moments that stand out, making you appreciate the journey of self-discovery through art.
