OK. I will check. I seem to have missed it. I don't remember any
song from the film, though I have seen it and liked it - at least it
was sincerely made, though very slow paced, showing every thing in
real-time like art films are notorious to show.
Still, my point is about the movie. There was no place for songs
really in it, so it would be another of those films where we would
have said good music of ARR didn't get proper placement in the film.
Thanks.
