    Music Personified!

    by pedsarq

    This movie has many layers. First, there's the music. The setup of the story, the pace, and the drama that ensues is all related to the pace of Beethoven's favorite String Quartet, one of his late one, the No. 14 in C Sharp Minor, Opus 131. It's a beast to play, has 7 joined movements with no pause. So, imagine what it would do to an aging music. Walken plays the role to perfection in what is, in my opinion, his best role ever. I am not used to seeing Walken so well-tempered and stable, and yet he plays the part to perfection. However, a quartet is about working in unison with others, which his story does so well. The lives of the other musicians are also unraveling and the the future of the quartet is called into question throughout the film. I enjoyed this film immensely and would recommend it to anyone who loves classical music on any level.

    Introspective and enjoyable

    by anooshig

    Wonderful acting and very enjoyable. Great introspective film showing the pitfalls of too much familiarity and connection when working closely together in a group. Don't miss it.

WesMcClintock I watched the movie "A Late Quartet" last night. The movie made it seem like bands were dysfunctional, how inacurate.

HoldenDCat #ALateQuartet was undone by uneven acting & writing. Smart message, but two talented actors, C. Walken & P. Hoffman, are mostly wasted.
