This past Friday, I ventured to the opening of BROTHERS (directed by Jim Sheridan), starring Tobey Maguire, Jake Gyllenhaal, & Natalie Portman (among others).

The powerful film was backed with a wonderful score, featuring an original piece by U2, the poetically piercing WINTER. You can listen to the track here. The soundtrack also features another U2 song, BAD.

The film was incredibly powerful and moved in a series of unexpected ways. First, Gyllenhaal’s character is not exactly how I imagined, Natalie Portman is drop dead gorgeous (even more than I remember in any of her other films), and Toby is brutally convincing beyond belief. The entire cast gave brilliant performances but, in my opinion, 10-yr-old Bailee Madison stole the show (sorry Jake, you know you have my heart). I left the theatre thinking about how amazing it is that such a young child could convey the type of pain and maturity she plays with seamless effort.

Check out an interview with Bailee Madison via Clevver TV, below.
