Common Chord (2013)
A feel-good movie you can take your kids to without concern for content.
Common Chord is a great family film with important messages about fatherhood. This movie is beautifully shot (DOP Jim McNally) and the original music (mostly by Joshua Reuben) is perfectly paired to the script and characters. It's an admirable effort for a first film from these collaborators. Go see this movie if you like family-friendly viewing. Wonderful performance by Jason Cermak, who plays Kyle Foster - a young musician who must decide if he'll fight for custody of his young daughter after the child's mother dies. Ashlin Malik, 11, shines as his daughter Tiegan in this, her debut, and we can expect to see this little girl again. Filmed in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada, threads of colourful family dynamics are woven into this movie that will feel familiar to many.
