. Once August's Rhapsody starts, Lyla and Louis both hear it. Lyla turns back and Louis realises it is the same kid he met in the park and rushes to the park too.
Both listen to Augustin awe, with Lyla realising it is her son. Louis spots Lyla in the park and follows her as she heads towards the stage. Louis takes her hand and she smiles at him. At the same time, August turns round and sees Lyla and Louis. A big grin opens on his face as he realises he has found his parents. :o)

Advantages: A good selection of Macke's work; not expensive (can be free) Disadvantages: Better if you understand German
If you go to see this impressive house, do not forget that if it was not for the determination of local people it wouldn't be open at all. The Bonn authorities were willing to let the building become a pub but a public campaign saved it, had it restored and in 1991 the doors opened. I?m pleased they did because August Macke is one of my favourite artists and certainly deserves a place for his work to be exhibited. This lovely Classicist style house, built in the 1870s, also houses a museum that puts into context the life of Macke and the artists working around him.
It is the house where Macke painted over 400 pieces and worked until his untimely death in 1914. He was born, however, in the Sauerland region of Germany. His father was an engineer, his mother from a farming family. The family moved to Cologne shortly after August was ...
Advantages: Get to Watch one of the Best films of 2007/2008 Disadvantages: Gets emotional in place :( makes you cry
whatever street money they can get. When Evan gets hold of a guitar, he displays an impossible talent for it (no really, I mean impossible) and Wizard brands his new money maker 'August Rush'.
Meanwhile, both Lyla and Louis still remember that fateful night together and both end up in New York at the same time. With an escapade at Julliard (don't ask), Evan puts on a concert in Central Park but first has to escape the Wizard. Will this concert be the key to reconnecting with his parents?
If the sentimentality was downplayed just a bit, this could have stood a chance at being an effective film for both children and adults - as it stands, the most effective bits for me was the clever sound editing of everyday noises into a sort of musical rhythm. Not Koyaanisqatsi by any means but the film's brightest spot nonetheless.
