The Broken Circle Breakdown may well be the movie find of the year that has had the most profound impact to me; for it is raw, real and connected and within its A film about passion within a relationship, within their love of their music, within the tragedy of the story that unfolds.

The enormous grief is shown beautiful in small details like a bent hand (in the song if i needed you) or the facial expressions of the main actors.

It will bring even the most hard boiled audience to tears. 7 out of 9 found this helpful.
The shape of the narrative is a stylistic choice rather than a psychological one because the time shifts do not enrich the depth or meaning of the lives of the characters. at the huge friedrichstadtpalast with 1500 people inside, many of them were crying. Whereas ItW has a lot more focus on beauty and passion (the sadness didn't really reach me), this one also has a lot of beauty (never knew I liked bluegrass music so much) and passion, but the sadness... oh the sadness... Half the movie you will be trying to hold in your tears.
No, the music is good. The film is helped by some fine performances by its leads, and country music is a driving vector of this story. I saw The Broken Circle Breakdown at a small cinema in Plymouth with only a vague idea that it had something to do with bluegrass music, of which I knew hardly anything.

I must say the editing was what made the movie a better product.
It has one of the most hard-hitting and realistic scenes of post-traumatic stress in a relationship I've seen in films. Was this review helpful? That sounds like a snowflake from the Sahara, a kangaroo from Mongolia, a coconut from Siberia: something completely out of place. It is apparent that the narrative was moulded heavily for the screen but without fully embracing and adapting to the filmic medium. The Umbrella Academy: Season 2 “The Broken Circle Breakdown” is an honest and superb portrayal of reality.
