The Broken Circle Breakdown

“Years ago, I stumbled upon this hauntingly divine song, the melody simplistic with soaring strings matching a clear soprano. An homage to the incomparable Sister Rosetta Tharpe, it was part of the soundtrack to a foreign film called The Broken Circle Breakdown. The premise is not unique: boy meets girl, she gets pregnant, what to do? But…it takes place in Ghent and Didier(later Monroe)is the lead singer of an American-inspired bluegrass band. Elise(later Alabama) owns her own tattoo parlor and joins him as a vocalist. They have a daughter, Maybelle(named after the matriarch of the Carter family) and rehab an old manor house in the country. And like any good bluegrass ballad, the tale turns to woe. Beautifully timed, gorgeously shot, exquisitely well-acted, so much so it sometimes feels like a documentary, I started crying without any preamble. It just happened. Fine one minute, flooded the next. Absolutely stunning. And the soundtrack is fire.”
