Matters of the Heart contains dramatic dialogue which makes each scene so poignant. I could relate to each character in various ways. This movie is about life, and sadly, also about death, but it touches, then penetrates, the deepest core of the heart. In addition, the piano music is amazing, as each piece is played so well and constructively placed in the dramatic scenes. What remains a question I've had, is are the actors (Christopher Gartin and Jane Seymour) actually playing the piano in this movie? If that's not the case, the movie is directed so well, it could actually fool you. The piano music, the conversations, and the intensity of feelings dramatized in this movie will leave you breathless.
