  • Contained within director Brett Haley’s little indie darling, "Hearts Beat Loud", resides an indomitable, overflowing joy. It’s unexpected, wondrous, and bound to fill your soul up until it, too, overflows. Sweet without being saccharine, loving without being profane, pure without being naive, "Hearts Beat Loud" successfully navigates the land mines of love, family, and moving on in a way unseen since 2016’s "Sing Street", itself a film that also utilizes music to communicate the inner-most thoughts of its central characters. As it continues its slow nationwide roll-out, "Hearts Beat Loud" creates more opportunities to spread more joy, more love, and more than anything, more hope.
