Watch Hear My Song For Free

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

I saw 'Hear My Song' every night for a week when we showed it at the cinema I worked at in 1993. The audiences were small, but then they always were back then for British movies on limited budgets. 'Hear My Song' came out without any of the showy publicity that so many other movies did that year, there were no press packs or standees in the lobby, but still it knocked spots of the majority of movies I had to sit through that year. I loved its sly, charming leading man Adrian Dunbar, and his best friend the then all-but- unknown James Nesbitt as Fin and their adventure in search of a legend who (at that time) I'd never even heard of. The story follows the classic Heroes Journey structure, and is filled with pathos, great music and scenery, wonderful performances from a stellar cast and a wry very- British sense of humour that still has me chuckling whenever I recount my favourite scenes. I have a real soft spot for this film and always list it as one of my favourite British movies and force friends to watch my much sought after R2 DVD copy whenever I can. 'Funny Bones' which Chelsom also wrote and directed is a fantastic movie which rarely seems to get a showing on TV despite being one of Jerry Lewis' finest films IMO.

When I listened to the wireless in the 1940s and 50s Mr Locke was a regular on the Light Programme,constantly appearing as a guest of such luminaries as Henry Hall or Vic Oliver on their radio shows.He topped the bill at Variety Theatres all over the country for years then disappeared off the radar - "Got some girl in trouble I'll be bound",was my father's comment which went a bit above my head at the age of 13.So clearly his reputation had reached even the leafy lanes of Surrey by that time,if not the real reason for his vanishing.My mother was inconsolable until she discovered Mario Lanza who was Italian and much more exciting. "Hear my song" tells of the search by a cut- price impresario for the elusive Irish tenor.Like "The Commitments" it presents the Irish as they really are rather than how the Americans choose to portray them - as refugees from a John Ford movie. Ned Beatty is splendid as the reluctant recluse, a man still capable of charming the birds out of the trees.He has the voice of an angel - so he does.My personal favourite Miss Shirley Anne Field makes a very welcome appearance,and the circle is closed by Mr Harold Behrens in a small role rounding off the connection to post - war BBC radio where he was a regular on "Ignorance is Bliss". Appearing unheralded on the horizon out of nowhere - as it were - "Hear my Song" is a beautifully crafted little film,a masterpiece in miniature and anyone whose love for movies is more than skin deep will adore it.

I stumbled on to this film by accident, and ended up absolutely loving it. The cast is first-rate in this tale of a music promoter who is trying to find a disgraced tenor from years ago. Ned Beatty is wonderful as the tenor, and the comedy in the film just seems to click - such as the great scene with the cow. This film is highly recommended to anyone who is looking for a hidden little gem to pass on to friends.

After viewing this film, and I have done so several times, I never stop being delighted by it. Many small things missed on first viewing, bring a smile to my lips over and over again. The humor, subtle and not so subtle is a pure delight. It is very well acted, and visually beautiful to look at. This is a small film that leaves you feeling wonderful.
