Dan in Real Life


Today I  am watching one of my favorite movies, Dan in Real Life. It's a heartwarming funny story about love and family. That sounds cheesy I know but it really is much more than that. The reason I decided to see this movie, when it first came out, was because the hilarious Steve Carell and the lovely talented Juliette Binoche both star in it (pictured above). I was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved all the characters, the setting, and the soundtrack. Most of the movie is set in the Grandparent's home and all the family is visiting. The home, filled with laughter, reminds me of the trips my family and I take up to northern california and we all stay in my aunt and uncle's home for the holiday. Times with my family are very dear to my heart and Dan in Real Life makes me feel at home. One of the many reasons I fell in love with this movie is the music and how it plays a character in the story. It is mostly acoustic and sung by a very talented and handsome singer from Norway, Sondre Lerche. (pictured below) No matter what kind of day I am having I can listen to Sondre Lerche and his songs make me feel at ease. My recommendation for you is to watch this wonderful movie and enjoy a heartfelt funny story with music that will melt your heart.
