The film is music from beginning to end, and nearly every note of it is magical.
-
75It's hard to focus on the travails when the music is so lively and good.
-
70The film is virtually wall-to-wall music with very little commentary -- it's obvious that, given the chance, these musicians would much rather play than talk.
-
50While the performances are often engaging, this loose collection of largely improvised numbers would probably have worked better as a one-hour TV documentary.
