She Came To Me (2023)
A composer with an unfinished opera, a conflicted psychiatrist and a free-spirited tugboat captain collide on a voyage into uncharted waters in the enchanting romcom She Came to Me.
Written and directed by Sundance winner Rebecca Miller, She Came To Me co-stars four-time Emmy winner Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister in Game of Thrones) and Oscar winners Anne Hathaway and Marisa Tomei (aka Spider-Man’s Aunt May Parker).
Bruce Springsteen and his wife Patti Scialfa’s song Addicted to Romance was nominated for a 2024 Golden Globe for Best Original Song, Motion Picture, while She Came To Me’s score, by Grammy-winning composer and guitarist of The National, Bryce Dessner, was up for a Hollywood Music In Media Award for Best Original Score – Independent Film.
AwardsWatch hails She Came To Me as “brilliant”, adding, “There hasn’t been a romantic comedy this inventive in a long time.”
