Review of The Broken Circle Breakdown (2012) by Chris M — 09 Nov 2013
A Belgian bluegrass love story might not sound appealing to many, but this award winning Flemish language tearjerker is such a fresh, nearly perfect movie through it's first two thirds that the somewhat melodramatic third act is a letdown only from its own high standards.
Elise and Didier are united in their passion for each other and for classic American bluegrass music. When their young daughter is diagnosed with cancer, their idyllic rural life is thrown into upheaval.
A feast of filmcraft, from the acting to the cinematography, to the mesmerizing musical performances. Not to be missed.
