Audience Member Wow, I had no idea this film would move me the way it did. I found myself really reflecting on my own relationship with my dad since that is the emotional touchstone of the story for me. Parallel Chords is so incredibly well done and impactful, it deserves the praise it's getting. I was so taken with the lead actress' performance as well. The dynamic between her and her father is riveting. Well directed, written and produced, I highly recommend this touching film. Excellent work, all around. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review william w I am a music junkie from a musical household. Many of the themes of family pressures to succeed in musical performance were familiar to me. So I loved it. But my wife, with no musical background, also loved it. We can all relate to the pressures to succeed and what types of sacrifices it can take. Catherine Dudley-Rose does a very nice job bringing this story to life. Worth a watch. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Parallel Chords is a gripping tale of a prodigy who comes to terms with her father's over disciplined rehearsals that eventually gets the best of both of them. Told through a broken narrative traveling from the past to the present and back again, we get a glimpse into the life of a musician who only want's his child to become what he wants her to be, not what she aspires to be. Gorgeous cinematography, beautiful music, a solid script and decent acting add to this well done coming of age drama. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review tim b I was truly affected by this film. Both musicians, the daughter and the father, were so believable. It's the kind of story that feels lived in, very real. It's a complex and artful film, but quite accessible. Anyone who has ever felt the pressure of a parent or their own ambitions can relate. It's an intelligent, well crafted and beautifully acted film. Musical, both in that it's set in the world of music and also has musical rhythm's in it's structure. I found the movie involving and an emotional tour de force. Bravo! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member This is such a well played out story of the love and struggle between father and daughter. Of the daughter growing up and choosing her own path against her father's wishes. Made me think of my own relationship with my father, the struggles we had, and how much I miss him.
