The movie may not be the greatest of all time, but it is genuinely underrated. It's a beautiful low-key, realistic depiction of the life of a touring musician, both his work and his personal relationships, with sadness and humour. The ending is a little predictable but appropriate and because of everything that led to it, it has some emotional impact. (I think the main flaw of the movie is that the last part, about the corporate wrecking of his music, is a little rushed and doesn't come across as well as it should to people not in the music industry. The bones of it are in there, but maybe not well edited.) Some individual scenes stand out, like him shaving with his little son, or discussing reviews with his band. The movie is not about the plot but about the emotional, very human moments in life that it covers. A big plus is that his real-life band, some of the best musicians around at the time, basically play themselves. And the musical numbers, whether performed onscreen or accompanying the action, are all magical. "One-Trick Pony" is one of my favourite Paul Simon albums.

wonderful album - wonderful film - fantastic songs - best all-star band in one spot! After hearing Cecilia three times in a row - it starts to lose attention - listening to the OTP album several times in a row never had the effect on me. That is the difference. The music is so deep and emotional and also vulnerable. He didn't do it that compactly before and not anymore afterwards. What can someone more honestly say to you when you're driving alone in your car on the freeway listening to this music? Unfortunately, most people never understood that. Large orchestra and strings are not necessary. No spectacle... It might even be the best album of his career, in a way...

This lady was born in 1926 and was not into the music scene. She was beautiful and smart and she spoke to many famous celebrities. Most of them were in films. She knew of Art and Paul of course, but while she didn’t know exactly what Paul was doing she really was a lovely woman. She was the first woman in the southwestern United States to host a general-interest talk program.

I'm pretty sure Bobbie Wygant is everything Paul Simon hates about being in the music business.

So you have the tremendous opportunity to interview Paul Simon and you ask him about insignificant "grammys"? It's a shame the questions are so shallow...

I went to see the film in the movies when it came out and I bought the album. I wanted to like the film but the problem was that Paul was very uncomfortable on screen as an actor, he appeared so self conscious - so that was distracting and then the story line was weak and predictable - it was not a good film, sorry. When the star of the film cannot act and is not compelling on screen you have a major problem. I liked the album and there were many well written songs.

but the thing is, that IS his persona and everyone knows he is introspective! of course he laughs and jokes with his friends - he's funny! but this is a story that's real and true about the business, about relationship, and about what The Road *is* for a band, esp in the time that styles changed and locked them out. I disagree with "weak and predictable" - he's not Glen Campbell. He stood up against the commercial attempts to manipulate a rocknroller (and added Lou Reed for irony). cmon!

I love Paul, but have to agree. OTP is his worst album in my opinion, horrible production and not great songs... Late in the Evening is the only redeemable song, and I like his most recent reworking of How the heart Approaches what it Yearns
