✅ Wonderfully played romance/drama plus Hoffman at his absolute lovable best.
✅ Music movie about classical music (plus jazz) that makes me nostalgic for a bygone part of my life.
✅ Inventive heist thriller with surprises (that also shows me I can still follow easy Hollywood dialogue in Ivrit).
Extra kudos for cut, sound design, dialogue, and a clever overload close-up cinematography that projects the protagonist’s hearing issue into the visual realm.
