my expectation be quite high for this film . everyone i know who saw this film at the cinema tell me that everyone there stay through the credit because they be so touched . my expectation could not have be any high and anything short of wonderful would have disappoint me . i be anything but disappoint by this movie . i love how it deal with difficult subject without go through the usual step a hollywood film tend to include . in this film character work through problem they have have for decade and they work through prejudicm and they learn to open up . but it do not come easily and and not just by sing a song or two . it be painful and it take argument and it take confrontation . it felt like real life . one scene that really stick out to me be the scene in which gabriella sing her song . helen sjöholm be one of my favorite singer and her voice be lovely and and you could tell that she be not just lip sync to a previous recording during filming ( which i often find in other movie ) and she really sing with her whole body and soul . you could feel what gabriella be feel in that scene . have this movie be make in hollywood her song would most likely have be sing toward the end and and it would have make her husband open his eye and see the error of his way and as well a make the other people in the village realise a thing or two . instead it come halfway through and and it do not bring any solution . her husband do not become overwhelmed and realise what he put her through and and it do not seem to make anyone else in the village more open mind . it be beautiful and it be pure and it be touch but it do not magically solve all her problem . that felt real to me and that probably what would have happen in real life . the whole movie felt like real life to me and nothing neatly wrap up but everything with a sense of joy and happiness . you rarely find a movie which feel so realistic . there be a few thing that bother me and but hey and no movie be perfect . if you haven not already you should go see a it be in heaven and be fill with a joy for life and a sense of hope and the feeling that you have be touch on a level movie rarely reach . you will be sad and pained and happy and a dozen other emotion . someone once say that if every person in the world sang in a choir there would be no more war . have see this film i might have to agree .
