Begin Again (2014)

Synopsis Begin Again (2013) Gretta (Keira Knightley) and her long-time boyfriend Dave (Adam Levine) are college sweethearts and songwriting partners who decamp for New York when he lands a deal with a major label. But the trappings of his new-found fame soon tempt Dave to stray, and a reeling, lovelorn Gretta is left on her own. Her world takes a turn for the better when Dan (Mark Ruffalo), a disgraced record-label exec, stumbles upon her performing on an East Village stage and is immediately captivated by her raw talent. From this chance encounter emerges an enchanting portrait of a mutually transformative collaboration, set to the soundtrack of a summer in New York City. ??The Weinstein Company Awards: 5 wins & 18 nominations total Budget: $8,000,000 (estimated) Worldwide Gross: $65,652,908 Soundtrack: Step You Can't Take Back (Written by John Carney, Gregg Alexander and Danielle Brisebois)
