You should see "Once" twice!

From director John Carney, Once is the story about a Dublin guy and a Czech immigrant girl who meet randomly in the street and get to know each other during the week they spend together.
He plays guitar in the streets to earn money and works with his father in a store fixing vacuum cleaners.
She plays the piano, does odd works during the day and takes care of her mother and daughter.
Unnamed Girl helps unnamed Guy recording a demo of the music that ends up describing their love, while both work through their past relationships.
Girl could be any girl and Guy could be any guy. The fact that you don’t know their names and the way the scenes look fantastically real makes you think this is the kind of the love story that actually happens. With no fancy restaurants or the cliché cinema kiss scene, Once is the glorification of real feelings in the real life with a fantastic soundtrack.
For anyone who likes music or knows the right person for you might be at that corner you never checked before, this is a must see movie.
