Can We Talk About THAT Song-Along Scene from 'Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga'?
Warning: This contains spoilers
On Friday, Netflix released the Rachel McAdams and Will Farrell film, Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga.
Sitting down with my wife to watch it and knowing very little about the Eurovision Song Contest, I really didn’t know what to expect from the film. But I was pleasantly surprised. I found the movie charming, funny, and entertaining. Is it a perfect film? No. But is it a fun 2 hours? Absolutely.
But I also found myself moved by several moments throughout as well. From Dan Stevens’ Alexander Lemtov understanding who he is and how that conflicts with his home country to society pressures not to pursue personal dreams, there was a lot to take in.
However, there was one scene that stood out to me above all else….the Song-Along.
For those of you who have seen the movie, you know what I’m talking about. Just over three and a half minutes of pure musical joy. It also features a collection of cameos from past Eurovision winners and stars and the representation is BEAUTIFUL. Needless to say, I’m loving finding a lot of their performances on Youtube.
Anyway, here it is. Enjoy it and I urge you to watch Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga because it is definitely the pick-me-up, I needed going into this weekend.
