They don't make movies about classical musicians much nowadays and when they do they have been horror movies. It's refreshing to see something like this. Patrick Stewart looks like a pianist. And Katie Holmes as the journalist interviewing him looks sweet. Nice to see her looking happy in a role instead of the usual morose roles. There is some lovely scenery in Switzerland and an interesting if not overly dramatic story. The score has lots of piano pieces that are played in recitals but not often used in movies including Schumann Schubert Rachmaninov and Scriabin. Some of the time frames are confusing.
Worth a watch.

A rare gem
Good, but not enough
The actors and acting are good, and in some moments you might feel the sorrow or the sadness or uncomfortableness of the characters, but something is off. It's a calm movie, and music plays on the background most of the time and it's enjoyable, also the scenary is nice, but the timings and the plot seems empty. I had the expectations to get inside the main character, but all I got was only some glimpses, and sentences "I feel like...", without actually presenting what it means for that person to say it, what it really means to lose something, to gain something. It's as if you literally are watching someone without really ever getting into their minds. And I miss the empathy, I couldn't connect, I couldn't even imagine what is means to feel "I feel like...".
