As a rule, I'm not drawn to musicals, but " The Way It Begins" totally changed my thinking. The production is unique in its storytelling entirely with music and dance. No words are spoken. Okay, maybe four words. It's beautiful and brilliant! The characters did not need any words to express themselves. This movie short is filled with just about every emotion you can think of throughout the couple's encounter. From the get-go, the playful music, "Gene Kelly" dancing in the streets, and amazing scenery, will grab your heart, make you smile, and surprise you with authentic feelings that transcend the power of speech. You might even tear-up a little. It's powerful and delightfully romantic!
