The Commitments (1991)
Country: EIRE/GB/US
Technical: col 118m
Director: Alan Parker
Cast: Robert Arkins, Michael Aherne, Angeline Ball, Colm Meaney
Synopsis:
An unemployed Dublin lad decides to form a Soul band made up of his jobless white Irish friends.
Review:
Energetic, funny, and full of good music, this was by some way a comeback film for Parker, as in 'come back home'. The screenplay, by Roddy Doyle and Dick Clement/Ian La Frenais, has an ear for local idiom and some sharp lines.
