The Commitments (1991)



The Commitments saved me from falling asleep in the middle of the afternoon.

The first 15 minutes of The Death and Life of Bobby Z didn't however. What a piece of crap...Unbe-fuckin'-lievable.

Anyhow, The Commitments movie is based on a novel by Irish writer Roddy Doyle, which was the first episode in The Barrytown Trilogy. It is a tale about a group of unemployed young people in the north side of Dublin, Ireland, who decide to start a soul band.

It's about Ireland in the 80's. How can you go wrong?

it made feel a little good about me-self.
