I look forward to re-watching director Brett Haley's crowdpleaser again at this year's IFFBoston. It really is a film that needs to be seen with an audience. The tunes are excellent, it's a sort of paint by numbers musical with a millennial/woke spin to it. Nothing revolutionary or spectacular, but I liked the film for what it was and Kiersey Clemons? I swoooon.
Gunpowder & Sky will release “Hearts Beat Loud” on June 8.
