LIFE IN MONO (GREAT EXPECTATIONS, 1998)



"She'll only break your heart, it's a fact. And even though I warn you, even though I guarantee you that the girl will only hurt you terribly, you'll still pursue her. Ain't love grand?" - Ms. Nora Digger Dinsmoor

Mexican Director Alfonso Cuarón's take on the timeless tale of Finn (Ethan Hawke) and Estella (Dwyneth Paltrow) brims with sensuality and romance. Based on the novel by Charles Dickens, it's a story for all ages. Supporting its theme is one of the song in the movie sung by Mono.


LIFE IN MONO
sung by: Mono

The stranger sang a theme
From someone else’s dream
The leaves began to fall
And no one spoke at all
But I can’t seem to recall
When you came along
Ingénue

Ingénue
I just don’t know what to do

The tree-lined avenue
Begins to fade from view
Drowning past regrets
In tea and cigarettes
But I can’t seem to forget
When you came along
Ingénue

Ingénue
I just don’t know what to do

Ingénue
I just don’t know what to do
