"Once" tells a fascinating story of temptation and seduction of innocence told in a most basic style but with a deeper meaning and an original point of view. Even with the narrow stage of one location (an island), three actors, and no dialogue, Once manages to create an alluring background for the exceptional pantomime and expression of the cast. Jim Malinda in the role of temptation projects his part with full energy and clarity. The chemistry of the small cast gets a grip on the emotions then takes a roller-coaster ride as the age-old story of good and evil unfolds. Once would play well in Art theatres and with cult film fans, It's the kind of movie I remember in my gut as well as my mind.
