this movie based on a true story Stars Meryl Streep as a music teacher who changes the lives of inner city students.it's in the same vein as Mr. Holland's Opus,but nowhere nears as good,in my mind.it lacks the depth and heart of that movie.it's also slow at times and those sweeping orchestral scores get to be too much after awhile. even though Streep is the headliner,i actually really liked Angela Basset.i though she was terrific.Aidan Quinn is also very good,in a small role.though i was disappointed in the movie,it still has it moments of inspiration,and is worth watching.it's just no masterpiece.it's directed by Wes Craven(The Nightmare on Elm Street series).for me,Music of the Heart is a 6/10
