Being a music lover, I can feel the roles played n this movie. I love how the mother doesn't give up on her dreams to teach child, not to play music but to love music.I reccomend this movie to any muiscian. July 22, 2008

This movie is definitely worth the price, and it is one where the "good-gy" [in this case Meryl Streep] wins. I would say that it would help if you have a love of music, and for stories without the sensation and hype of some of the techno-adventures Hollywood cranks out. This story speaks to families, perevering in trial, and overcoming. The ending is splendid, and if you do not feel any tears welling up in your eyes, then check your pulse. This is definitely on my "must see often" listing, which is why I bought it. Interestingly, it is based on a true story. If you are a musician or love music, this is for you. April 27, 2008

In my opinion, this was one of Meryl Streep's finest performances. This is a true story about the value of life and commitments. Meryl even learned to play the violin for the lead.

It is a shame there are not more movies of this quality. March 1, 2008
