In the emails that they exchange (where Barbara says that she is “rather dispirited” at the thought that she will let him down, to which he replies that “we can’t get anywhere if we stay on familiar ground”) and during her rehearsals with pianist Stephen Gosling, the singer’s attempts to overcome fear and accept imperfections, while avoiding the clichés of the ever-suffering artist, come to life.
