Review of The Swell Season (2012) by Jordi G — 27 Aug 2012

Watchable enough but it's not a film at all. If you had this as an extended DVD extra on your copy of 'Once' then you'd be impressed at what a good package you'd bought. As a documentary in it's own right it wouldn't even register.

If you sat down to watch this film and had no prior knowledge of Glen and Marketa then I imagine you'd be bored beyond belief as on the surface they're both a little whiny and the story such as it is covers them doing a few gigs, going out for a little while then breaking up but staying friends.

..that's it.
