Next to a guy with cerebral palsy, being deaf looks like a picnic. What if Art(Michael Sheen) met Ron Livingston(Richard Pimentel) instead of the other way around? With Art, front and center, "Music Within" would find something more pressing Next to a guy with cerebral palsy, being deaf looks like a picnic. What if Art(Michael Sheen) met Ron Livingston(Richard Pimentel) instead of the other way around? With Art, front and center, "Music Within" would find something more pressing to dramatize than Richard's problems with women. Richard explains to Christine(Melissa George), in so many words, that his activist work is so much bigger than her protestations of feeling neglected. She's no Betty Shabazz, this one. By showing us how Richard Pimentel's fight for the rights of disabled Americans took a toll on his personal life, the filmmaker makes the same mistake as Christine. A wheelchair ramp, and getting a fair shake for jobs, just might be on the same level as women and blacks having the right to vote, so it just might be a little ungracious of "Music Within" to show how Richard suffered for the "little people"(not dwarfs, but people who have(had) no voice). A deaf person can read lips. You can't hide cerebral palsy. To see the trials and tribulations of a man like Art would really drive home the importance of the American Disabilities Act.… Expand

I was not at all convinced by this movie, it all seemed very phony and so trite. The period detail is atrocious. You can't just throw in a 60's and 70's soundtrack. The characters never aged, just their hairstyles changed. The I was not at all convinced by this movie, it all seemed very phony and so trite. The period detail is atrocious. You can't just throw in a 60's and 70's soundtrack. The characters never aged, just their hairstyles changed. The actors try, but it's hopeless with the script. Sloppily made, not enough thought was put into it and it has many loose ends, plot holes and guffaws.… Expand
