The Song to My Heart

source: The Song to My Heart

I had a day of from work on a rainy British, autumn day and put this on to chill with over a cup of coffee. Having seen Martin Cummins before, I thought it worth a watch. I was very pleasantly surprised, two likeable leads with good chemistry and some pleasant, easy listening, if not taxing, songs. I hadn't seen the two leads before and it was lovely to see fresh faces and an old storyline given some injection of pep. The support cast was excellent and the dialogue flowed well,, the shop and waterfront was delightful and it seemed devoid of the fake plastic flowers usually prolific in these movies. Let's see more of this style and certainly more of these two leads.

An aspiring singer and songwriter hopes to get inspiration from his idol. Instead it's the idol's daughter he connects with. Lanie McAuley and Sebastian Pigott do connect. This movie is fun if you have an interest in the process of writing a song. The singers are not earth shaking, but they are OK. The songs are obviously poetry set to music rather than catchy melodies that stick in your head. This might be one of McAuley's first leading roles at least in a romance. It seemed to me that she was working to deliver her lines. Many of them were clipped. Martin Cummins is natural as Hank the musical idol. There is a very nice exchange between Bonnie and her dad on the patio. I had to back it up and watch it again. This movie has a nice beginning, middle and a strong finish.

Between several of the actors and the recording, much dialog is difficult to follow. The storyline survives, but it puts an unnecessary burden on the casual viewer.
