The movie AUGUST RUSH is about a young music prodigy who finally got united with his parents thru' music. According to the writeup in Reuters, it's Magical realism meets a modern-day Oliver Twist in "August Rush," an often charming urban fantasy that teeters perilously on the brink of preciousness but never quite topples over. .. [the movie] is driven by its music. From gospel and rock to classical and symphonic, music carries its characters and story ever forward to their destiny.
Nice movie... different from the usual movies for the kids (& the young at heart) during the school holidays. =)
Btw, the child lead actor, Freddie Highmore (August), also acted in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory; and also Finding Neverland previously.
