00:00:17 Listen.
00:00:21 Can you hear it?
00:00:26 The music.
00:00:30 I can hear it everywhere.
00:00:35 In the wind...
00:00:38 ...in the air...
00:00:42 ...in the light.
00:00:50 It's all around us.
00:01:02 All you have to do is open yourself up.
00:01:16 All you have to do...
00:01:19 ...is listen.
00:02:10 Hello, Porky. Where' s your little friend?
00:02:15 - I don't know, Mr. Mannix.
00:02:19 Where I've grown up--
00:02:21 Evan!
00:02:24 Evan!
00:02:26 --they tried to stop me
00:02:32 But when I'm alone...
00:02:37 ...it builds up from inside me.
00:02:41 And I think if I could learn
00:02:49 ... they might hear me.
00:02:52 They would know I was theirs...
00:02:56 ...and find me.
00:03:00 Knock, knock.
00:03:02 - Knock, knock.
00:03:04 - Knock, knock.
00:03:06 Who's there? Who's there?
00:03:09 Freak. Freak.
00:03:13 - Said, knock, knock, freak.
00:03:17 Your long-lost mommy and daddy.
00:03:21 Can you hear them?
00:03:24 Yes.
00:03:30 No, you can't.
00:03:32 I can.
00:03:39 You don't have no family.
00:03:42 You can't hear anything.
00:03:45 Say it.
00:03:48 - Say it.

00:04:04 Yeah.
00:04:07 What is he?
00:04:10 He's a freak.
00:04:15 - Sweet dreams, freaks.
00:04:18 - Good night.
00:04:26 Sometimes the world
00:04:32 But I believe in music...
00:04:34 ...the way that some people
00:04:50 I like to imagine that what I hear
00:05:14 Maybe the notes I hear...
00:05:16 ...are the same ones they heard
00:05:22 Maybe that's how they found each other.
00:05:28 Maybe that's how they'll find me.
00:05:32 Louis. Louie, where are you?
00:05:35 - Lyla? She' s here. What are you doing?
00:05:37 They're waiting for us.
00:05:41 Where are you, baby bro?
00:05:44 We didn't follow you from San Francisco
00:05:47 We need this one, baby bro. All right?
00:05:51 Don't forget to smile and look relaxed.
00:05:54 All right, not that relaxed.
00:06:00 I believe that, once upon a time...
00:06:04 ...Iong ago...
00:06:07 ...they heard the music and followed it.
00:09:03 - Not bad, Connelly. Not bad.
00:09:06 Where's the main man?
00:09:08 Goddamn it, Louis. Just wait, man.
00:09:12 Louis? Louis, wait up, man.
00:09:19 Girls, we are going to a party tonight.
00:09:22 It's a full moon,
00:09:37 Lyla.
00:10:23 It's a great sound, isn't it?
00:10:27 What are you doing?

00:11:20 Can you hear that?
00:11:22 What is that?
00:11:24 It's a wish.
00:11:35 Now, what does that sound like?
00:11:58 When I was a young fellow...
00:12:01 ...I used to talk to the moon.
00:12:04 Are you making that up?
00:12:08 God, I haven't done that in a long time.
00:12:14 Does it ever talk back?
00:12:18 Well, it used to.
00:12:21 Now I just find myself on a roof
00:12:25 ...Iike a loon.
00:12:30 Just out here on me own.
00:12:36 Well, I'm here.
00:12:41 Yes, you are.

00:14:51 Eleven years and sixteen days.
00:14:55 I've been counting.
00:14:58 That's a long time.
00:15:00 - How do you do that?
00:15:08 Well, it's just imitating the wind chimes.
00:15:24 You don't wanna be placed
00:15:27 - I have a family.
00:15:30 I mean, you have parents and all,

00:15:51 Come and visit you?
00:15:52 - Send--?
00:15:57 I don't wanna be sent away.
00:16:02 I understand.
00:16:05 You see, there's a lot of children...
00:16:08 ...who are scared
00:16:11 ...their parents would never
00:16:15 Right?
00:16:17 But see, my job is to make sure...
00:16:19 ...that nothing like that
00:16:22 So there's nothing to be scared of.
00:16:27 Thank you.
00:16:35 I'm gonna do something I never do.
00:16:39 This is my number.
00:16:41 If you ever need to talk to me,
00:16:47 ...you call.

00:17:18 Mannix says we're never
00:17:20 Mannix is a big liar.
00:17:23 Yeah, I know. But what if he's right?
00:17:27 I mean, what if they don't ever come?
00:17:30 Hardly remember what my mom
00:17:33 Well, if they don't find us,
00:18:19 - Oh, my God.
00:18:21 - How's it going?
00:18:22 Get away.
00:18:25 I have to go.
00:18:26 - Let me walk you home.
00:18:29 My dad's waiting at the Sherry. I--
00:18:31 I've never done this before.
00:18:34 Hey, hey.

00:19:20 Oh, man. One girl?
00:19:23 Come on, we're gonna miss the flight.
00:19:28 - Taxi!
00:19:35 Excuse me.

00:20:42 What am I gonna do now?
00:20:58 I know they're out there somewhere.
00:21:15 I don 't know where it comes from...
00:21:21 ...but it's what I hold on to.
00:21:27 And I can 't let go.
00:21:34 Somewhere inside me...
00:21:36 ...I know that they always wanted me.
00:21:42 Maybe they just got lost.
00:22:50 What's the point in singing, Marshall?
00:22:54 She's not gonna hear me.
00:22:56 I'm leaving the band.
00:22:59 Don 't quit on us, Louis.

00:26:24 ...so I left him a message
00:26:27 - Okay.
00:26:29 Don't lose it. If he doesn't show
00:26:32 You can handle that, right?
00:26:34 - Yeah.

00:44:23 It's governed by the laws of physics
00:44:28 It's an overtone, it's an energy,
00:44:31 And if you're not riding it, good Lordy,
00:44:35 Where do you think it comes from?
00:44:39 What I hear.
00:44:41 I think it comes from all around you, really.
00:44:45 Comes through us, some of us.
00:44:49 It's invisible, but-- But you feel it.
00:44:53 So only some of us can hear it?
00:44:56 Only some of us are listening.
00:45:01 Do you think my parents are listening?
00:45:04 I hear you, kid.
00:45:09 Like?

00:49:39 That baby, he could have hurt you.
00:49:44 He could've hurt you, and l--
00:49:54 I made a choice for us.
00:50:00 Oh, my God.
00:50:04 A choice for us.
00:50:07 Wait....
00:50:14 I'm sorry.
00:50:20 Where?
00:50:25 Where is he?
00:50:27 - I didn't mean--
00:50:31 I don't know.
00:50:35 I don't.
00:50:45 You gotta love music
00:50:49 More than life. More than yourself.
00:50:59 You feel it?
00:51:04 Then show me.
00:51:06 Play it for your parents.
00:51:57 You're flying, kid.
00:52:09 Yeah!
00:52:10 You know what I'm thinking?
00:52:13 You're supposed to say,
00:52:16 "What are you thinking, Wizard? "
00:52:19 I teach you everything I know for free.
00:52:21 You get Roxanne.
00:52:24 You get to keep half your tips.
00:52:29 There's something wrong
00:52:32 What?
00:52:34 I don't think performing in parks
00:52:37 It won't?
00:52:42 Evan, we're gonna need
00:52:45 Something with a little more pop.
00:52:47 What do you wanna be in the world?
00:52:51 Close your eyes and think about that.
00:52:55 Found.
00:53:02 Doesn't have enough yin.
00:53:04 - Little more yang, you know?
00:53:07 Yeah, let's....
00:53:10 Talk about wishful thinking. Look at that.
00:53:17 What name stands out to you
00:53:19 Beach?
00:53:20 It's a good name for a band,
00:53:23 You can't say, "Please welcome Beach."
00:53:26 August Rush. August Rush.
00:53:31 I can see it.
00:53:34 ...the number-one heat wave:
00:53:37 August Rush!"
00:53:41 - Yeah.
00:53:44 - August, August, August.
00:53:46 That gives me chills. The hair
00:53:50 - Really?
00:53:51 Quick, check it out. Yeah.
00:53:53 - I'm flying! I'm flying!
00:53:57 - August.
00:53:59 That's you.
00:54:01 - August. August.
00:54:49 New York, Lyla?
00:54:51 Lizzy, I mean,
00:54:54 I'd see kids that would be his age
00:55:00 - Big blue eyes like his dad and--
00:55:03 Lizzy, I used to lie in bed at night
00:55:07 - I swear I could hear him.
00:55:10 Calm down? How can I be calm?
00:55:14 I've been calm for over 10 years
00:55:18 Lyla, you're losing it.
00:55:20 You're right. And maybe it's about time.
00:55:24 Don 't do anything crazy, okay?
00:55:26 We're on our honeymoon, but we're leaving.
00:55:49 Okay, Jack, he's worth three times
00:55:52 - Wallace--
00:55:54 You're a pain in the ass.
00:55:56 - Two-fifty if he can play for two hours.
00:55:59 - Five hundred? I'll give him 250--
00:56:04 - He walks?
00:56:08 No, there's no parents. I'm his guardian.
00:56:11 No, I'm his representation,
00:56:14 May I help you?
00:56:16 - I'm trying to find my son.
00:56:19 Name?
00:56:26 Mommy.
00:56:34 Mommy.
00:56:39 I don't know.
00:56:42 - Mom.
00:56:54 Mommy, look at me.
00:56:56 I'm sorry, ma'am, we're closing.
00:57:00 Please, I just-- I wanna know his name.
00:57:05 To even consider re-establishing contact
00:57:10 I don't care about your process! Okay?
00:57:31 Ma'am, we're closed.
00:57:39 Lyla.
00:57:42 Novacek.
00:57:46 - Hi, this is Lyla--
00:57:49 And we're not here right now,
00:58:12 Arthur!
00:58:15 What'd I tell you
00:58:17 - Yeah, what's your name?
00:58:21 Arthur. We ain't strangers now.
00:58:24 Look, Mr. Wallace,
00:58:28 I'm trying to find these kids.
00:58:30 This girl, her name is Geralda.
00:58:33 Don't know her, Mr. Jeffries.
00:58:35 Okay, well, maybe you can help me
00:58:38 Little boy that came up missing recently
00:58:43 He's about 12.
00:58:47 And what if I find this Evan
00:58:51 What then? You don't care about a kid
00:58:55 - It's not like that--
00:58:59 You don't follow up.
00:59:03 Eventually, you end up in a place
00:59:07 Go to bed at night
00:59:12 Shut out the world.
00:59:14 What happens to that kid?
00:59:18 What do you think he hears?
00:59:22 - Nothing.
00:59:28 Are you all right?
00:59:29 - Yeah, I'm cool.
00:59:40 Fourteenth Precinct, Sergeant O'Malley.
00:59:43 No. That doesn't cut it.
00:59:48 No! Oh, is that final?
00:59:51 Okay, well, here's my final offer:
00:59:55 - Deal's off.
00:59:58 You play when I say play.
01:00:01 - You got that, boy?
01:00:04 Wizard, I need them to hear.
01:00:06 You forget about your parents!
01:00:17 You don't know how it could be for you.
01:00:19 You do not know how precious
01:00:22 You're just a kid, you don't know.
01:00:30 I do, August.
01:00:47 - Wizard. Wizard.
01:00:49 - It's Arthur. The cops chased him here.
01:00:53 - We gotta help Arty.
01:00:56 - That's the book.
01:00:58 - August!
01:01:01 He went outside over there.
01:01:16 Up there. You see him?
01:01:20 - Hey, kid, don't move.
01:01:22 Cops. Cops.
01:01:25 Cops. Over here.
01:01:29 Grab that kid over there.
01:01:39 Listen, you can't let the cops catch you.
01:01:41 If they do,
01:01:44 ...because they'll send you right back
01:01:48 I don't wanna lose you...
01:01:50 ...but if we get separated,
01:01:54 Do not tell them your name.
01:01:56 Hey, when I say run, you run, okay?
01:02:08 Let me see your hands.
01:02:12 - Run, August. Run, August. Run!
01:02:27 Hey, kid, stop.
01:02:35 Open the door.
01:05:15 - Hi.
01:05:18 I know how this looks, you know.
01:05:23 Nobody thinks you're crazy.
01:05:26 Lyla Novacek.
01:05:28 Well, it's like
01:05:30 - You fill out a couple forms--
01:05:33 I don't have six months for forms.
01:05:37 Then I can't help you, then.
01:05:39 Explain something to me now. Why now?
01:05:43 Why not before? Why is it so important
01:05:48 I've always wanted him.
01:05:53 I've waited 11 years, two months,
01:05:57 ...to find out that he's alive.
01:06:03 I've been counting.
01:06:22 - Hi, this is Lyla--
01:06:24 And we're not here right now,
01:06:48 What are you waiting for?
01:06:49 You see, I know this girl
01:06:52 Lyla Novacek.
01:06:53 I've been standing outside here waiting.
01:06:55 I wrote her a song.
01:06:57 Oh, the musician.
01:07:01 Well, I haven't seen her in a few days.
01:07:07 Thanks.
01:07:50 And this isn't your signature?
01:07:53 You do realize that he's probably
01:07:58 Do you have children, Mr. Jeffries?
01:08:09 Yeah, I did.
01:08:13 Then you know.
01:08:22 What's his birthday?
01:08:24 December 17th, 1995.
01:08:28 Yeah, I know.
01:08:42 Excuse me a minute.
01:09:12 This is him.
01:09:19 Yeah.
01:10:00 You the one slept under my bed?
01:10:07 Do you live here?
01:10:09 Me and my grandma do,
01:10:14 Do you like music?
01:10:17 More than food.
01:10:21 Do you know your notes?
01:10:25 I've never seen them like that before.
01:10:27 See here:
01:10:29 "Every Good Boy Does Fine"
01:10:34 And " F, A, C, E" in between.
01:10:40 And "Great Big Dogs Fight Animals."
01:10:43 And "All Cars Eat Gas." Get it?
01:10:49 You're like an angel.
01:10:52 Okay. I gotta go.
01:10:54 Gotta go to school.
01:11:01 Can I borrow this?
01:11:03 Later.
01:12:32 Holy....
01:12:37 Reverend J.!
01:13:08 You're not gonna believe this,
01:13:11 - Slow down, Hope.
01:13:35 Remember in Music Appreciation
01:13:38 Yes.
01:13:39 Remember you said
01:13:41 - Prodigy.
01:13:43 Well, I have one of those,
01:13:54 So I showed him the scales
01:14:31 Mr. Jeffries, hi, it's Lyla Novacek again.
01:14:34 I was just checking in.
01:14:40 Right, I understand.
01:14:41 You know,
01:14:44 Yeah, just call.
01:15:00 I'll take it.
01:15:02 How long do you think you'll be staying?
01:15:05 As long as it takes.
01:15:29 Sorry.
01:15:31 I don 't know, Lizzy, it's like...
01:15:34 ...I just woke up...
01:15:36 ...and I should start playing again.
01:15:38 I should play.
01:15:41 I know it sounds crazy,
01:16:00 Hey, Marshall. It's me.
01:16:05 I'm in New York.
01:16:08 Is the band still minus
01:16:12 Having you guys here,
01:16:16 Just an idea.
01:16:17 Hey, Frank. It's Louis.
01:16:21 Louis Connelly.
01:16:23 And?
01:16:24 I played here with me band
01:16:27 Well, about 10 years ago.
01:16:31 Hey, hey, listen, Frank.
01:16:34 I'm gonna play you one song, all right?
01:16:38 And if you don't like it,
01:16:58 You brought us a prodigy, Reverend.
01:17:01 - He is a mystery.
01:17:04 Dean, I thought he was an angel.
01:17:07 There's no record of
01:17:11 It's about foundation,
01:17:39 Lyla, just relax.
01:17:42 - This piece.
01:17:45 I don't know if I can do this.
01:17:47 You're playing with the Philharmonic.
01:17:50 That's great.
01:17:53 Okay, let's keep going.
01:18:03 Start with a C-major chord,
01:18:07 Once we get to G,
01:18:10 And we have C, G, C.
01:18:21 At the very beginning, C-major chord.
01:18:23 We have this chaotic evolution
01:18:31 C-major chord, then move into a G.
01:18:41 What' s this, August?
01:18:44 The diminished fifth, sir.
01:18:47 Key change here.
01:18:48 And then the rise with those round horns,
01:18:53 ...into the allegro staccato strings.
01:19:02 Mr. Rush.
01:19:07 - I'm sorry.
01:19:12 Sometimes I don't listen well...
01:19:13 ...and I don't do the homework
01:19:16 Well, I'm sure you'll do better
01:19:29 The New York Philharmonic Orchestra
01:19:33 In the history of this school we have never
01:19:37 ...and certainly no one of your age.
01:19:40 But now, we've asked them
01:19:45 Would you like that?
01:19:47 Well, good. Good.
01:19:50 How many people will hear it?
01:19:54 Well, it would be performed in Central Park,
01:19:58 A hundred?
01:20:00 Much more. Thousands.
01:20:03 Okay. Because I need to play it
01:20:09 We'll see what we can do to help.
01:20:15 August, three artists will be performing
01:20:31 How do you do it?
01:20:33 How does the music come to you?
01:20:38 I just hear it.
01:20:44 Sometimes I wake up and it's there...
01:20:46 ...or I hear it
01:20:56 It's like someone's calling out to me.
01:20:59 Writing it all down
01:21:02 Who?
01:21:05 The ones who gave me the music.
01:21:15 - You sure you're ready for this, Louis?
01:22:18 Bravo, August!
01:22:23 Good one!
01:22:27 August, boy, you're a hard guy to find.
01:22:34 Been looking everywhere for you.
01:22:36 Excuse me.
01:22:39 - Yeah, rehearsal, right.
01:22:42 Come here to me, son.
01:22:53 Come here.
01:22:58 What'd they do to you?
01:23:01 Nothing.
01:23:05 These people can steal your soul.
01:23:08 Sir, whomever you are,
01:23:11 I'm his father, all right?
01:23:18 I'll take you home now. Come on.
01:23:21 But I have a concert. I like it here.
01:23:24 - He's a remarkable boy--
01:23:27 What'd you do, you just snatched him up
01:23:31 Wait a moment,
01:23:34 What are you gonna do?
01:23:35 Fill his head with classical theory
01:23:39 You can't learn music from books.
01:23:42 It's out there.
01:23:45 You teach him?
01:23:48 He teaches you.
01:23:50 You learn from him.
01:23:52 We are.
01:23:55 You should be with family. Come on.
01:24:00 Mr. Rush, please.
01:24:02 Do you have any idea of the importance
01:24:07 August. Wait, listen.
01:24:09 You gotta tell me right now,
01:24:16 You can tell me the truth.
01:24:19 I know your real name.
01:24:23 Evan.
01:24:25 August.
01:24:27 Evan.
01:24:31 Is he your father?
01:24:37 He taught me everything I know.
01:24:52 And we are back, we are back.
01:24:57 Don't make it harder for yourself, Aug.
01:25:00 Wizard's not so bad.
01:25:03 You saw the kid, right?
01:25:06 Here's the deal. Thousand a night, two
01:25:10 Then we ship him out to your partner
01:25:13 He just ain't feeling well.
01:25:16 He said you the only one
01:25:26 Competition. All right, I'll be back.
01:25:33 Yo, yo.
01:25:41 I'm his representation.
01:25:44 Come on. No, there's no parents.
01:26:17 Great sounds, kid.
01:26:22 Gibson J-200?
01:26:25 It's beautiful.
01:26:27 Can I see her?
01:26:31 Hey. It's okay.
01:26:35 I'm a musician too.
01:26:42 Yeah.
01:26:48 Oh, yeah.
01:27:03 Nice action.
01:27:05 You're pretty good.
01:27:08 Thanks.
01:27:11 See what you can do with mine.
01:29:07 How long you been playing?
01:29:09 Six months.
01:29:11 Six months?
01:29:13 How'd you learn how to play like that
01:29:16 Juilliard.
01:29:18 Juilliard?
01:29:20 Yes, sir.
01:29:21 I have my own concert tonight.
01:29:24 Do you reckon I should believe you?
01:29:27 Yeah. But I can't go.
01:29:30 Why's that?
01:29:32 It's kind of a long story.
01:29:37 Well, if I went to Juilliard
01:29:42 ...I wouldn't miss it for the world.
01:29:45 Yeah.
01:29:51 But what if something bad
01:29:56 You never quit on your music.
01:29:59 No matter what happens.
01:30:01 Because anytime
01:30:05 ...it's the one place you can escape to
01:30:11 I learned that the hard way.
01:30:15 And anyway, look at me.
01:30:17 Nothing bad's gonna happen.
01:30:20 You gotta have a little faith.
01:30:33 I'm Louis.
01:30:36 Ev-- August.
01:30:38 August Rush.
01:30:40 August Rush.
01:30:43 - Cool name.
01:30:47 Come on!
01:30:52 I gotta go, August.
01:31:00 Bye.
01:31:02 Yeah.
01:31:05 Bye.
01:31:17 Bye.
01:31:36 Yes, I made him memorize our number.
01:31:42 I understand. Your department's
01:32:04 Do you think anything bad
01:32:08 I'm sure he's fine.
01:32:10 I prayed for him. Did you?
01:32:14 Yeah.
01:32:16 Well, if his father loves him like he should,
01:32:25 You believe that, don't you?
01:32:28 - Yeah.
01:32:31 Now go get ready.
01:32:44 Welcome to our Concert in the Park...
01:32:46 ...and the Mercedes Drive Your Future
01:32:52 And now it is with enormous pleasure...
01:32:54 ...that I welcome back to the concert stage
01:35:06 I have to go now.
01:35:19 I'm not coming back this time.
01:35:23 He's just kidding, Wizard.
01:35:26 Me and August have a understanding.
01:35:33 Aug, you can't leave me, man.
01:35:36 Yes, I can.
01:35:39 Because you have to
01:35:41 Yeah. My concert's starting.
01:35:44 Well, all my money's on the fact
01:35:49 You know why?
01:35:51 Because they can't hear you.
01:35:53 They're probably dead.
01:35:55 You're not going anywhere.
01:36:09 Nowhere to go, son.
01:36:21 Run, boy.
01:36:23 Run, August, run.
01:36:46 August!
01:37:39 August!
01:38:01 Thank you, ladies and gentlemen.
01:38:04 Music has always fascinated us
01:38:10 Without words, without pictures.
01:38:14 And that leads us
01:38:21 How much longer to the airport?
01:38:24 Man, it jams up the traffic.
01:38:26 Bring you back to the old days,
01:38:47 "August Rush."
01:38:49 Evan Taylor.
01:39:06 Unfortunately, our last performer
01:39:11 He's here. He's here. He's here.
01:39:15 Excellent.
01:39:17 Perhaps there's no one else who can
01:39:24 ...than our final composer.
01:41:18 Hey, what's that?
01:41:20 Concerts in the Park every spring.
01:41:50 Let me out.
01:41:53 Let me out! Let me out!
01:46:39 The music is all around us.
01:46:41 All you have to do is listen.
01:52:26 Bamba, bamba
01:52:31 Oh, bamba, bamba
