The Music In Me: Documentary Review

Title: The Music In Me
HBO Family Documentaries

This is a new-to-me category of documentaries, one about children produced with the intention of being watched by a family.

This 30 minute short film explores children who make music out of the joy in their heart. The kids are inspirational and amazing. One thing made clear to me is that natural ability to make music is inborn. I do not feel this way about learning an instrument or making music which proves the point that some people just don't have a natural talent. I couldn't help but feel inept while watching this. I wonder what kids who watch this who are not natural musicians would think of the film. I bet they would feel inept too. If you can divorce yourself from self-criticism while watching this you will feel inspired by the film.
