Quick take: Once

Is there anything else like it? An unconventional love story with songs, integral to the plot, that proceed from beginning to end before our eyes and ears. Partly with montage, but often in real time, with the camera on the musicians as they play, live. Real musicians, that is. A feature-length film that probably has more minutes of music than of dialog. Oh, and the music is great, the story stays focused on music, and the emotions feel real (they sort of are, apparently) even though the acting isn't always stellar. Only 86 minutes, but it feels ... longer? shorter? ... well, different in length. If there's anything else like this, let me know.
