On the Edge (2001)
It’s not that On the Edge is bad movie, it’s that if it interests you, it offers no surprises. I enjoyed the film more than I didn’t, but there's no way I'll remember any of it.
After nonchalantly attempting suicide following the death of his father, Jonathan (Cillian Murphy) is admitted into a psychiatric hospital. As the young patients get to know each other through therapy sessions, their lives take a turn for the better.
I’m not sure if the film is based on a personal experience. It feels like it is, and that’s a good thing. The characters are realistic, the portrayal of people suffering from mental health disorders is tastefully done, both the patients and the doctors are likable. There aren’t any villains in this picture, just people trying to live their lives as best they can. There are everyday conflicts and triumphs, it’s basically just the life of this guy who begins to re-evaluate his prospects when he begins making friends in the psychiatric hospital he’s admitted in.
There's not much to say. On the Edge is well made, but bland. It could've used a cartoonish villain to spice things up. As Jonathan's doctor, Stephen Rea would've fit the part well. A couple of loonies would've given this film a bit more energy. But this isn’t that kind of movie. It’s kind of like One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest if McMurphy had no Nurse Ratchet to fluster, was only moderately wild, and all of the people he talked to had the chance of making it out of the hospital if only given the necessary care and time. I don’t want to say that John Carney (who co-writers with Daniel James) has made a boring movie but it just doesn’t do anything new. You can see the relationships developing as you would expect and even the moments of big drama are easy to predict.
If you’re debating whether or not to check out On the Edge (maybe you're a big Cillian Murphy fan), you might as well. It’s fine at doing what it does and its biggest flaw is an overall lack of ambition. Cillian Murphy, Tricia Vessey, Jonathan Jackson, and Stephen Rea are appealing actors. Their characters are as well. I’m not upset I spent the 86 minutes required to see the whole story, I can’t see anyone labeling this film as a favourite either. It just doesn’t stand out. (On VHS, April 9, 2016)

What makes me sing these days...
[Verse 1]
You look so happy upon that train
Just strangers two minutes ago
Now they're laughing and sharing a joke
There's nothing 'bout each other that they don't know
They're so good looking and they're both young, too
Looks like we've got ourselves
[Chorus]
A meet cute, it's impossibly cute
Aren't you up for them? Don't you wish you were them?
A meet cute, it's disgustingly cute
Let's hope that nothing gets in their way
They're just strangers on a train
They're just strangers on a train
[Verse 2]
Over tea and coffee, biscuits and beer
They tried to make sense of it all
The world is scary and ugly out there
And she's getting even more beautiful
I bet he's thinking that he's met his match
Now we've definitely got ourselves
[Chorus]
A meet cute, it's impossibly cute
Aren't you up for them? Don't you wish you were them?
A meet cute, it's heartbreakingly cute
They may not see each other again
They're just strangers on a train, yeah
Strangers on a train
[Bridge]
They're so good looking and they're both young, too
Now we're pulling into the station and we seriously got ourselves
[Chorus]
A meet cute, it's impossibly cute
Aren't you up for them? Don't you wish you were them?
A meet cute, it's disgustingly cute
Let's hope that nothing gets in their way
They're just strangers on a train, yeah
They're just strangers on a train
Life leaves them alone, yeah
They're just strangers on a train

The last time I saw these two play music together was May 8, 2008 in Milwaukee. Hands down, one of the best performances I have ever seen in my life. 13 years, 10 months and 4 days later, I finally got to see these beautiful souls together again. Thank you @thegingerman222 and @marketa_irglova! @swellseasonofficial • • #glenhansard #marketairglova #concert #theswellseason #favoritemusicians #music #once #theframes #cadillacpalacetheatre #chicago #livemusic #johncarney #liveperformance #imissedthis #oncethemovie #piano #guitar #violin #cello #bass #music #chicagoconcerts #swellseason (at Cadillac Palace Theatre) https://www.instagram.com/p/CbB_UFEAJfa/?utm_medium=tumblr

Acá les dejo la ilustración final de Lost Stars (estrellas perdidas, en el post anterior esta mal escrito 🤫 😬) compuesta por Gregg Alexander, es parte de la banda sonora de “Begin Again”, una muy bella película de John Carney. Se las recomiendo! Hey guys! Here is the final illustration for “Lost stars” (don’t tell anyone but I spelled wrong the name in the process illustration 😬). It was created by Gregg Alexander for the soundtrack of the beautiful John Carney’s film “Begin Again”. #beginagain #love #laliruggeri #fridayiminlove #illustration #greggalexander #johncarney
