Together With You


Together (Together with You)
Chinese, English subtitles
2002, 119 minutes
5 Stars

If you love violin music, this is the movie for you! If you loved King of Masks, this is the movie for you! If you love a good love story (not a romance), with laughs and tears and marvelous music, watch Together. The story is about a poor father from the countryside who has a young boy who is a prodigy on the violin, and how the father takes him to Beijing to enter him in a contest, and get him the very best instructor. The characters they meet, how everyone grows, the lessons of life that are learned combined with sumptuous scenery, wonderful costumes, all come together with a marvelous soundtrack and make for a movie of pure enjoyment with a perfect ending. (Spoiler Alert: keep a tissue or two handy;-)
