I
just now saw this movie on a Lufthansa flight from Frankfurt to Seattle - where I
am going for MVP/RD Summit. The movie is about August Rush (played by Freddie Highmore)
an orphan who loves Music more than food and runs out in search of his parents. His
parents (played by Keri Russell and Jonathan Rhys) are a sheltered cellist and a charismatic
guitarist who get separated by accident after a single night of love and living in
search of each other for 11 years. The mother herself never knew she had a boy born
alive. The story is about how this boy becomes a child music prodigy performing his
own composition in New York Central Park music festival and gets united with his parents
at the end. The movie has some Bollywood/Kollywood like elements like the boy running
into bad guys (played by Robin Williams) and always falling back into good guys. A
nice to see Movie with fine background music.
