I am so glad Geoffrey Rush played the role of David Helfgott. I found it very moving, sad, funny, so many...he was brilliant and deserved that award. No one else could have done it other than him. He was sensitive, passionate and brought out David's character so it made you rivoted to the screen. I loved it so much I didn't want the movie to end. I love classical music and the people talented enough to compose and play such works of art. Although, I wish David hadn't experienced his troubles, I appreciate him for the 'true' human being inside and his beautiful heart. He is God's gift in so many ways. Thank you Mr. Helfgott and Mr. Rush for being the true life story and the other; on-screen story=brilliance!!!

@chasitylynn81833 жыл бұрын
@@ThornyRoseV drugs are NOT always helpful, they are used as a crutch and ARE NOT always the answer. For instance more than half of women 40 and older in America are on at least ONE mental drug. And for YEARS. Are you claiming that half of all 40 year olds in America need mental narcotics? They have an 'imbalance' of some sort???? Really?? I don't think so. There is NO scientific evidence this is the case Exercise, meaning in life, a support system, lack of negative self talk etc.. could fix a vast majority of these cases. I would say 1-5 percent of people really need psychotropic drugs. These drugs shouldn't be freaking played with like we play with them now. Almost a quarter of American boys are on some form of ADHD medicine. Do they really have attention problems? Or is school fucing boring as hell for most 9 yr old boys???? Etc. Etc. Throwing medicine on problems like these is assuming a hammer fixes all repairs. Retarded. If the brain is so precious like you claim, rearranging a healthy one is as sadistic as shock therapy.

Unlike today. Did you hear about the new “diversity” standards? Awful🤦🏻♂️ Look, I’m not against diversity, but only in the context of the story. If you’re making a movie about medieval Europe, you don’t expect to see an African American. If you’re making a survival movie, you don’t expect to see an actor in a wheelchair. They’re literally oppressing the artists that make the movies.

I like viewing and listening to the tune of "flight of the bumble bee" in trumpet, in tuba and trombone...I love the Canadian Brass played it. I love the story of this film, and I was thinking to myself if who wrote the piece-actually it was the tittle of the song I was trying to recall. And it was your comment here that reminded me it was the "flight of the bumble be." Probably because it was played on string instrument that is why I forget. Your comment helps me recall. I love Leslie Dye.
