I adore it ! For Advent calendar, for admirable performances, for the routine of one man note, for ash urn and for teeth brush, for the run with bike after job , for the late romance and for final concerto, for Paul Barber as perfect florist, for admirable. Crystal Yu as autoritarian conductor, for Louisa Clein and her discover about enloved mate, for. Jason Watkins , off course, recognizing in his character some traits defining me and, not the last,Sir Ian McKellen, his voice giving to film the flavors of old fashion fairy tale.

A profound seductive film, redefining , in wise man, the routine of loneliness, the job as formality and the event , fruit of accident, changing everything.

Funny and delightful

"The One Note Man" is about a guy who lives by himself and has a daily routine. When he wakes up, he brushes his teeth, eats breakfast, eats something sweet, and rides a bike to an opera house where he plays one note on an instrument in an orchestra. After he plays that note, he goes home, eats dinner, brushes his teeth, and goes to bed. The next day, he does everything again. It kinda reminds me of "Groundhog Day". The protagonist of "The One Note Man" is lonely and he falls in love with one of the musicians in the orchestra. I won't spoil the rest of the film. By the way, except for a bit of narration from Ian McKellan, the film has no dialogue.

I really enjoyed "The One Note Man". It's quite charming and funny. The protagonist is played by Jason Watkins and his performance is great. His character is also very likeable. The story, music, cinematography, editing, and such are wonderful. You don't need to have dialogue to make an entertaining film and "The One Note Man" is definitely proof of that. I honestly can't think of anything I didn't like about the film. It's Oscar-worthy.
