The Girl from the Song

I'm really in trouble when I have to say anything about this movie.

First of all, forget about super cheesy and completely unpredictable story. If you are looking for this you should probably go look elsewhere.

Second, I kinda liked this movie. Although I had problems with character development: sometimes it doesn't really makes sense why a character does what he/she does. I felt that some scenes are over- acted and there is a character who doesn't succeed to fit his role at all.

I said that I kinda liked the movie and that's because it made me remember a girl who broke my heart a long time ago. I know that sounds strange but she had the exact same behavior as Jo has and I felt nostalgic when I was watching the movie. I made the same mistakes/efforts that Eric does and this really made me sad. A few days are already passed since I watched the movie but even if it's not the best movie I ever saw I still think about it a lot. The soundtrack is OK, I think Eric has a great voice ( I guess he's the one who actually sings ).

It was great that the viewer gets involved in the festival as well, I heard about Burning Man before but now I learned a few other infos about it.

Overall it's a nice movie with great soundtrack and scenery and you should definitely watch it if you were ever in love with someone.

Not of the singles generation myself, so expecting more. Great idea for a plot, but swallowed up in a location that looked like hell. Orpheus would have been at home, but anyone thinking that the Burning Man festival was a happening place might be disappointed. Hell should definitely be something to be avoided, not endured in the cinema, unless it provides something worth going there for. This film can be watched while doing something else - ironing, perhaps. It can be watched out of the corner of one eye, or fast-forwarded and nothing will be missed. Jump from one cliche to the next. The characters are barely tenable and almost indistinguishable. The heroine has long brown hair. Every other female character has long brown hair. The seventies feel doesn't stop there. I know. I was there. The festival is banal and ridiculous. If this is cinematic irony, I really am too old to be reviewing it. A brief and age old message (literally) portrayed in either a poorly realised homage, or one that is so ironically thick, it requires a simpler medium.

Such a good movie with a sense of very loud yet silent love. It gives you classic feels and takes you to place where you feel free, your soul is free and free people around.its a Very different story yet one problem there should be one last scene. I mean at the end you so want that last scene and all you get is end credits rolling.

From Spain, this uncommon movie tells us a good love story from London to the desert of Nevada. Without tears or violins maybe, but with lyricism and guitars instead. Nothing seems easy for our modern Orpheus but why should it be? His little Trip to find love will put him face to face with himself and the complexity of relationships. Sided by the beauty of music. Acting is great, script and scenario fantastic and the music score is perfect. Half of the movie was shot at The Burning Man festival with breathtaking images from the location. A special mention for Sir Owen. Loved his part. For me, a "must see" for the "Singles" generation. And also the others. Especially if you don't like love stories..

I thought this was delightful, if simple tale set against the background of the Burning Man festival. The film is strong visually with nice acting, and well-cast characters. I thought it described the artsy-party-heathen vibe of the alt. scene very well, which can be superficial just as it is poetic. I thought the ending was in balance to the rest of the film. Enjoyable - made me nostalgic.
