Good point, that was an excellent scene, very touching without being sappy. Thanks for the comment!

Nope, you're at least the third to see it. I'd probably give it an extra star because I was almost in tears when the band played outside the hospital, but your thoughtful consideration makes your case very well. Nicely done.

I was beginning to think I was the first person to ever see this movie! I liked it for what it was, and was not disappointed that it wasn't a romantic comedy! Thanks for the comment!

I agree with you that the movie was mis-labelled as a romantic comedy - though the elements were there, it wasn't developed nearly enough (it would have been a much different movie if it had gone in that direction) Having been involved in organized choirs and bands all my life, I can identify with the desire to keep the music playing, even when everything is going against it.

I really liked the movie too, and I think that you rated it pretty accurately. Good job!
