SouthernJet Reviews: 'A Late Quartet' (3 1/2 of 5).. You Love Beethoven?

[SouthernJet]

A Late Quartet is a Indie film currently playing. Premise is a world-renowned string quartet led by Chris Walken is about to enter their 25th season. Walken (Professor to the other three 25 years ago), receives news that will alter the future of not only the Quartet but the relationships of the four people who have been together for so long.

We have the plethora of emotions here: jealousy, anger, egos and lust.

The cast is top notch: Chris Walken, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Catherine Keener and Mark Ivanir.

Can the changes break them apart or solidify more who there are?

The movie is centered around Beethoven's Opus 131 String Quartet in C-sharp minor. For lovers of Chamber Music and the 'scene' that revolves around it, enjoy.
