Kids on the Slope

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie about two totally different characters becoming friends and bonding over music. I usually dislike jazz, but watching it being played live so you can appreciate the craft is always fascinating and the music scenes are so well choreographed, it's really uplifting and captivating. To round it off with some feminine energy and a little romance, the third friend in the mix is a cute and really charming girl. I also liked how the movie (very briefly) addresses the conflicts brought by the American occupation, its undisciplined, disreputable soldiers and the sad effects of people from two different ethnic groups having children, basically creating a person who doesn't know where they belong because they aren't really part of either group. All the protagonists are very likeable and charismatic and they have great chemistry. Definitely worth watching!
