Song One is another film full of clichés and no suprises, but even though it brings nothing new to the romantic drama films, it is warm and harmonious. Anne Hathaway stars as Franny, that after her brother Henry was injured and hospitalized in a coma following a car accident, she returns home after a long estrangement. She begins to use his notebook as a guide to how his life has evolved in her absence. Franny seeks out the artists that Henry loved, which leads her to meet James Forester (Johnny Flynn), his musical idol. An inevitable romance arose between them. One of the few highlights of Song One is obviously the music, which was composed by Jenny Lewis and Johnathan Rice.
