From Elsie in Norway:

"My daughter just told me that "Hallelujah" sung by Jeff Buckley (again...) appears several times in the Norwegian movie "Vinterkyss" (2005), so I guess I'd better go see it:-) It is a sad film, about losing a child and the parents' reaction of grief. "

Just the title "Winter Kiss" is enough to interest me. There are many such 'images' in Leonard's work. I can think of many songs that could backdrop nicely in a movie with such a title. Of course, Hallelujah seems to be coming up a lot now.

Hallelujah seems to be coming up a lot now.

Indeed! Leonard also has noted the same, and - according to him - the "song has had a curious career"

I'd go one step further and say "Leonard has had a curious career!".
