  • that kid wishes he could play guitar that good

  • watch andy mckee in you tube, he play like this way the guitar.

  • is Andy Mckee??

  • So please, break the suspense. Is this kid actually playing this or what. I want to know for me. But I want to also prove my man wrong. He is under the delusion that a guitar can't be played like that, by a kid or otherwise. WHAT!?! I know he's tripping, but I need some back up to back me up. Can anyone help?

  • i know i have a talent for defining music hearing every note for each note as it is played but i dont know how to express it and ever since i watched august rush i knew i needed to do something but what

  • what is the name for the last guitar song played? when the dude says "play it for your parents" ?

  • @pollomima its called "Ritual Dance" by Michael Hedges. Great song, amazing musician. RIP Hedges.

  • the part 6.08 is the best =)

  • @95wildcats yeah i know but is the name of the song

  • One of the most beautiful movies I've ever seen...

  • Fuck sony blockers bitches

  • I like August Rush too! i love this part :D

  • God made music. it is true if you really listen you can hear nature praising God

  • In the park what kind of music is that? like genre, i cant really place it.

    Still effin amazin tho :D

  • i just can't get out of this in my head..

    :))

  • i absolutely love this movie (:

  • I love his invisible delay pedal.

  • i wish i could just pick up an instrument and have the music flow.

  • Love this movie, love this music....

  • i get chills ALL THE TIME while watching this movie :)

  • Best part of the movie. And, man, that kid can jam!

  • @yrnghrmy Sadly, it's just acting. But the visuals are nice. The real players are muuuuuch older.

  • that's beautiful!!!

    

  • ssssssssssnnnnnnnnnnnaaaaaaaaa­aaap!!!!!

  • me gutaria que tubiera subtitulos en español

  • eric mongrains son?

  • Thanks to this movie i found out about Andy Mckee because this movies music style is based on his playing. for example Drifting from Andy and the park scene from August

  • @noxie1 THANK YOU!!! Andy Mckee is so amazing.

  • yeahh I love this part, so great..:))

  • goed

  • muy buena, muuuuuuy buena!!!!!!!!!!!! guau!!!!!!!!!!! cúanta emoción provoca, qué delicia de película

  • watching this movie over and over again, i come to think to myself why do i continue to look for someone to share my love for music with. when just like music....HE will IN TIME come to me!. --simply an inspiration!.

  • i watched this in choir a couple of days my teacher was gone and i fell in love with the music and everything about it. it is an amazing movie!

  • what is he saying at 6:16

  • You gotta love music more than you love food, or life. More than yourself.

  • "you gotta love music more then food"

  • One of the main reasons I love this Movie: I believe that music in itself is not just about notes or melody. It's basically a lifeform in itself that can show or even empathize emotion (I believe that's phrased right. This movie doesn't show just music, I feel it shows the heart of Music. Being a music teacher, I've shown this movie to my students each year since I first saw it. Just amazing

  • i really, really love this movie....

  • @137ashes Me too, just wanted another ending, though.

  • At 4:37 I don't think that could be done with one person. It was at least two people and it was definitely not Freddy Highmore.

  • The Song is originally Called Bari Improv by Kaki King. its meant to be played by one person though i doubt it was Freddy actually Playing :/

  • No its done by one person with a delay pedal. I just learned how to play it a few days ago. Actually not as hard as it sounds.

  • what about that arron is playing?... :D

  • i just never get tired of listening and watching to this great movie..

  • I guess you have the wrong idea about music too and by the way you don't need to play an instrument to love music.I myself play the guitar from 7 years now and I enjoyed the movie to the fullest so please keep the hateful comments to yourself (and also the kid was awesome i just love how his face is showing how much he loves music and how much he loves the sound that his hands are creating,even though it's not actually the kid creating the sound)

  • i seen the full movie in the plane from the netherlands to thailand 4 times lolz

  • this is realy the best movie that i ever saw... and I saw a lot ;)

  • 6:10 MICHAEL HEDGES - Ritual dance and then KAKI KING - Playing with pink noise. Astounding. :D

  • The movie is so great... The music surrounds us... BY which we sound listen...

  • all u have to do is LISTEN!

    damn this movie is great.

  • I always truly love the beginning. It gets me everytime. And Freddie H. is one of the best children-actors I've seen!

  • What happened to Leon?? The black kid singing & playing his guitar. He would appear right after August was listening to all the sounds in the street, right?

  • you guys should look up 'playing with pink' by kaki king if you want to hear more guitar slapping. she's the one really playing that soulful music.

  • really? i thought he was pretty nice, like is there something i missed?

  • not him singing, he was great there, but check out the acting part, i know everyone loves him, i do too, but i can be objective and see that he looked like he was reading his lines...

  • i love this movie!!!!!!!

  • yeah...i cried when I first watched this movie in the theater.......the acoustic guitar music is just amazing in this movie....

  • the movie is great, but it isnt filmed the best... when it shows the pan shots of august and he slaps the harmonics on the guitar, it isnt in the real song. oh well. the last song is Ritual Dance by michael hedges

  • @AcousticGuitarist1 exactly it's not supposed to play the real thing or it to phony

  • Ohh..

    I actualy cried when i first whatch it

    Love

    Freddy

    Sooo Good ActOr!!

  • aaaamazing film, gives me shivers everytime.

  • muy conmovedora

  • The feeling of when i touch my fingers to a piano or any other instrument is estatic...sometimes a i get a feeling in my chest or heart thats like a shock...and i feel like someone is taking over me, and making me play this music....great movie too.

  • Dude, lay off the E! :P

  • god this movie makes me cry everytime ...because I really know the feeling of loving music, I can't even explain it

  • @reddphoxx2 Yeah, it's wonderful..

    I try to explain it, but the closest I get is that I want to crawl inside of the music and at the same time feel it flowing through my chest and out to every limb..

    I don't know if that's kinda what other people feel, but that's kinda how I feel.

  • @reddphoxx2 how does it feel? I want to love it too...
