Glen Hansard was part of the ensemble of The Commitments. The musician by trade — he leads the band The Frames — he was a natural choice to star in Once — especially given that former Frames bassist John Carney wrote and directed the film.
Once is about an Irish busker (Hansard) and g Czech flower seller (Markéta Irglová) who meet and fall in love over music. It is best known for “Falling Slowly,” the lilting, then driving power ballad that went on to win Best Original Song at the Oscars.
If you like a small-scale, personal story, and like watching charming musicians being charming, Once is the movie for you.
