'Begin Again': "Chef" for the music scene......

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

.....sort of.

Ruffalo is a washed up music producer and label owner who just got fired by this founding partner. Nearly penniless he stumbles into a bar where Knightley goes on stage (under duress) to play one of her songs. Ruffalo instantly sees a good thing and tries to sign her in his stupor. Poor Knightley had just been dumped by Levine and her life was taking a very emotional turn. She teams up with Ruffalo and they produce an album using guerrilla recordings from all over the streets of NYC. The movie comes to its inevitable but non-Hollywood end.

Knightley sounds like she was using her real voice which is, um, okay. She gives a good performance and Ruffalo does good along with Keener and Levine. This film is more about music, the love of it, and what people will do to get it out. That is the 'Chef' part. With the exception of Ruffalo's F-bombs, this is a pretty clean movie.

If you are in love with the music scene this glossy look at the low-key end of the industry is somewhat delightful. The vibe must be out as there were almost no young people in the audience. Take the squeeze and relive those courting moments of sort.
