Watched The Music of Silence on Netflix, based on the autobiography of tenor Andrea Bocelli's life. I cried several times, of course, and loved all the scenes in Tuscany. The movie stars Toby Sebastian, who played Trystane Martell in Game of Thrones, as Bocelli. He does a really good job and looks so much like Bocelli as a young man.
