The Red Violin on Sunday for signs and wonders was actually very good. Sadly this is not a true story and the accounts and people in it are completely fake. It was really cool to go through the history of the violin even though it wasn't real. At some points I thought the director went over the top though. Like in the scene when William Pope has sex with a woman while playing his violin. That in and of itself is quite strange, but then he loses his "inspiration." Goes into a spiraling sexual depression and in a brief scene you see him lying naked in his bed stroking the shaft of his violin. Really? I get that the director wanted to show how this was a very sexual character whose inspiration came from sex and music, but he didn't have to make it so awkward for everybody! I didn't post the picture cause its just so awkward and I didn't want Caity to die laughing awkwardly like she did on Sunday.
Besides the sexual violin master there were other very nice moments in the movie. To be honest, anything with Samuel L. Jackson has to be cool! At least for the moments were you see his face and hear that gorgeous voice....sorry that was a man crush moment. Anywhoooo.............
I really enjoyed this film and was really happy that I finally got to make it to a Sunday signs and wonders because I really enjoy these types of movies! I here I'm lucky that I missed out on some of the other ones. :P SUGGESTION!!!! Show "August Rush" Its one of my favorites! :D Although I probably won't be able to make it to another Sunday night unless Treblemakers practice is cancelled again...darn this angelic voice of mine!
