What are your personal opinions of Once? Is it your favorite film from director John Carney (he also helmed Begin Again and Sing Street). My personal fav is Sing Street (thanks to Jack Reynor’s winning performance as Conor’s ne’er do well brother Brendan) Feel free to comment below!!
Hot Summer Nights, co-starring Timothée Chalamet and Alex Roe, opens in select theaters on July 27.
