And it turns out he is a musical genious and so were his parents and then it turns out they DO want him! The previews are so magical feeling, like anything can happen because of the music. They almost make me tear up but Freddie Highmore could read the phonebook and I would be enthralled. That kid is adorable. oh, Here is what IMDB says: "August Rush" tells the story of a charismatic young Irish guitarist (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) and a sheltered young cellist (Keri Russell) who have a chance encounter one magical night above New York's Washington Square, but are soon torn apart, leaving in their wake an infant, August Rush, orphaned by circumstance. Now performing on the streets of New York and cared for by a mysterious stranger (Robin Williams), August (Freddie Highmore) uses his remarkable musical talent to seek the parents from whom he was separated at birth. hum. . . .

But notice that she is compelled to give up the baby, thus cutting short her involvement in the imaginary realm. It's a rewrite of all of the ancient myths of adoption, such as Oedipus and Moses.
