Once

Even though it was kind of different, overall I enjoyed the movie Once. I was confused about whether or not they were just filming these people's lives, or it was an actual scripted movie. The filming did not seem very professional. It was kind of fuzzy and the lighting was not very good.
I did not like the ending of the movie, because I thought the two main characters would have ended up together, but they did not. I did think it was cute that he bought her the piano, however. The story was neat how these two strangers met randomly one day on the street and became close friends. It was funny when she was dragging her vacuum cleaner all over the city with her.
The music in the movie was really good. I liked the first song that the two sang together. I actually bought it off Itunes over the weekend. The guy was very good at playing guitar, and I love songs with acoustic guitar in them.
I think that using videos to help students further understand the concept of the papers was a good idea. I enjoyed all of the films we watched this semester, and I thought they all fit really well with what we were doing at the time. It was also nice to get a break from normal class once and a while. After just turning one paper in, it was nice not to have to then turn around and think about another. The videos provided a good break in the class that had a good purpose.
