Music Of The Heart is an excellent movie regarding a music instruction program. Meryl Street and Aiden Quinn are two of my favorite actors. However, the big surprise for me was the companion documentary Small Wonders. My husband and I both teach music and marvelled at the work done by Roberta in her violin program. We were both in tears at the powerful success of this music program. I wish I could buy several copies of Small Wonders (haven’t been able to locate it) so that I could give a copy to each of my students and their parents. Doing anything well…whether playing music, painting pictures, designing rockets, etc. takes an enormous amount of work and dedication. Inspiration can come from many sources…in this case, what I would call the “tough love” of a woman who obviously loves the music of the violin. I highly recommend these DVDs…two great movies for the price of one!
Product Overview
Two-time Academy Award(R)-winner Meryl Streep (1983 Best Actress, SOPHIE’S CHOICE; 1980 Best Supporting Actress, KRAMER vs. KRAMER) stars with Angela Bassett (HOW STELLA GOT HER GROOVE BACK) in a heartwarming, acclaimed true story of how one woman’s musical gift affected those who least expected it. A single mother with little more than talent and the determination to make a difference, Roberta Guaspari (Streep) overcame the skepticism of everyone who didn’t think she should be teaching violin to students in a tough inner-city neighborhood. But even after a decade of ever-growing popularity and countless success stories, Roberta and her kids must rise to meet an even greater challenge: budget cuts aimed at shutting down her valuable program for good! Also starring Aidan Quinn (PRACTICAL MAGIC) and Grammy-winner Gloria Estefan in a stellar cast, this extraordinary story will inspire anyone who’s ever thought their dreams were too far out of reach!
A Must SEE! – C. Pelletier – Avondale, Arizona, US
Music of the Heart sends a message to every single human being in the world… especially if music has been, is, or was a part of your life, or the life of your child. The message is brilliantly presented by the intensity of the actors, and Meryl Streep is at her ultimate best. This movie doesn’t miss a beat! Pun intended… but, seriously presented! If you miss this one, with your family, you all lose. And, if you are motivated to make changes in the realm of education, pertaining to the fine arts, and particularly music, watch this film, and take some serious action! This movie is so good, it should come with a money back guarantee, of course, it would never have to pay out a cent!!! Kudo’s to all who made this movie! It should have been a tremendous hit!
Great Movie! – Guy M. Marzano – Minnetonka, MN USA
This is an absolutely wonderful movie. I’ve seen a lot of Meryl Streep movies, and this is probably her best role. She should have an Academy Award for it. If you aren’t crying and cheering by the end of the movie, you were asleep during most of it. It is a great show!
A Warm Family Oriented Film – Michael Paul – JACKSON, MI, US
For those into music movies. A real good family friendly film. For those who love Meryl Streep, Gloria Estefan, Cloris Leachman, or Aidan Quinn.
