The Swell Season

The world fell in love with Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová when their songwriting collaboration in the film Once (2006) culminated in a jubilant Oscar win. But behind the scenes, where Glen and Mar’s on-screen romance became reality, a grueling two-year world tour threatens to fracture their fated bond. Filmed in black and white, this music-filled documentary is an intimate look at the exhilaration and turmoil created by both love and fame.

The Swell Season review by Soap2day

Get your popcorn on, because The Swell Season won`t let you go until the very end.

For all the 91 minutes this movie is running, there is not a minute that will be wasted watching it.

When it comes to movies of the genre Documentary, Music, Romance, this film immediately comes to mind.

One of the best movies of 2011, combining all the experience of the film industry of the past years.

Carlo Mirabella-Davis, Chris Dapkins, Nick August-Perna`s ability to set the accents in all the right places made the movie a real piece of work.

The wonderful cast of actors, consisting of Allison Tolman, Catherine Hansard, Glen Hansard, Markéta Irglová, Rob Botchnik, admire their professionalism.
