Ryan Gosling surfaces like an actor from the feature film called 'Song To Song' which has suitable numbers. The numbers unknown because the visual industry preferences us: to recommend features to friends abroad and in this third world country. Gala like movie with 'Off Beat' or whatever that is screenplay from the Austin, music scene. Grateful to having seen them on a sunny day under a sunny sky; even to a library audience. The feature 'Song To Song' is a strong movie that cannot be ungrateful about. Letting Go because movies like 'Song To Song' need not be without grace and other things like words, expressions and sentences. Review to consider viewing the movie called 'Song to Song'.

Terrence Malick have made better versions of this film years earlier. After his 21st century peak in The Tree of Life everything that followed are just residues of that success. Here we've got another set of characters that are lost and longing, but they aren't as interesting as in his previous works - that's the law of diminishing returns. They're just beautiful people filmed in beautiful places murmuring words we've already heard before in a superior Malick film and it is too thematically identical to Knight of Cups.It stars Ryan Gosling who does Gosling things, Michael Fassbender playing like a lesser version of his character in Shame, and other big names like Natalie Portman, Rooney Mara and Cate Blanchett. It also featured Patti Smith playing herself and opening up about her real life, but she chose the wrong Malick film.This is a perfect example of self-parody. Malick is too old now to take another long break, and I just wish he still has one film left in him to catch us off guard.

The only thing good one can say about Song to song it is it is not the abject failure of Thin Red Line. It is fairly obvious what Malik is doing with Song to Song, it is, like Knight of Cups, self referential blaming of his failure on externalities. That is pitiful enough. AT least is not as abjectly laughable as Thin Red Line, which managed to hit a trifecta of destroying the lessons and point of view of one of the best novelized portray of combat, ignore Jones point of the brutality AND necessity of that war and combine that all with abject absurd combat scenes.

Mostly I try to watch the movies of Terrence Malick and they like this one "Song to Song" are about thought as they are long and drawn out stories of life and choices with interactions as love and interest change with people as much of it is about location and timing.Set in Austin, Texas this picture revolves around the young alternative music scene in which two struggling songwriters BV(Ryan Gosling)and Faye(Rooney Mara)are trying their best to break into the music business with the help from a mogul named Cook(Michael Fassbender). Thru it all the lives of each are turned upside down as to begin with BV and Faye have a relationship that's intimate with sex yet things change when BV returns to an ex flame and Faye starts to explore and try to find out who she is in the bedroom as she runs an experimentation with another woman for some hot passionate sex! Now Cook tries his shake with Rhonda(Natalie Portman) a young waitress yet nothing doesn't really go to float. Thru it all each character makes a discovery about life, love, people, as the experimentation and intersection with one another all leads to a mix of seduction and betrayal as each learn the game of life and see what's in it for them as BV returns to his blue collar roots and leaves the music business.Overall long take and spin on interaction, experimentation, and life choices proving that chance, timing, luck, location and passion all play a part in shaping one as life can be a fun experiment.
