Has the flavor of Waking Ned Devie. A romantic comedy. Takes place in a small isolated village with more men than women. Where on could be very lonely. In the local pub, the guys decide to place an ad in the Miami Herald, asking for attractive young women to come to their town for a dance and possible marriage. When the town's women learn of the scheme, their reactions vary from bemusement to offense, and they set in motion a counter-scheme involving fishermen from a Spanish trawler.

Salt of the earth working mom Agnes Browne (Anjelica Huston) must fend for herself and her brood of seven children when her husband dies. Fortunately for Browne, her best friend (Marion O'Dwyer) is on hand to add support and plenty of laughter. Directed by Huston, captures a slice of Irish life in late 1960s.

A combination of Full Monty, the Committments and Blues Brothers. Great music. Most reminds me of the Commitments.

A view into the troubles. Quirky, interesting. I rented it at BlockBuster. If you can find it, its an interesting view. A reporter gets has a fling with the wrong girl getting him caught up in a very ugly complex situation. I loved the pistol packing nun.

Jackie O'Shea (Ian Bannen) discovers that one of his neighbors in the village of Tulaigh Mohr is a lottery winner he sees a chance to share in the wealth. Things get complicated when Jackie and his pal Michael O'Sullivan (David Kelly) discover that the winner, Ned Devine, died of shock at the very moment he learned of becoming a millionaire. Undaunted, Jackie and Michael dispose of the lucky stiff and hatch a plot to impersonate him and claim the prize. Soon the whole village is involved and the plot rapidly thickens.

Adapted from Brian Friel's semi-autobiographical Tony Award-winning play--examines the emotional lives of the five unmarried Mundy sisters in 1936 rural Ireland. Michael Gambon ( , ) plays the older brother who is a priest returning from many years in Africa, now addled

unemployed Sheffield steel-mill workers who, out of desperation, the need for money, and an equal need to have something to do, decide to become male strippers.

Rivalry, jealousy and betrayal. Two brothers in love with the same woman. Very young cast. Music by Van Morrison.

Minnie Driver ( , , , ) as a plain Irish Catholic girl in love with someone she thinks is out of reach.

The children of two neighboring Irish towns gradually escalate their quarrels to outright--if painless--warfare

Adaptation of Roddy Doyle's novel about a working-class Irish family, and the teenage daughter who finds herself pregnant--with the circumstances too embarrassing to discuss.

Loved the music. Bought both Commitments CDs. Fast-talking, ambitious young Dubliner (Robert Arkins) fancies himself a promoter of talent, and sets about assembling and packaging a local Irish R&B band. His group of self-absorbed, backbiting, but stunningly talented individuals begin to succeed beyond his wildest dreams, until petty jealousies and recrimination threaten to scuttle the whole deal. A moody, vivid, and soulful exploration of the Dublin club scene as well as a showcase for some wonderful unknown actors, the film (and its wonderful soundtrack) also features the actual band covering classic soul tunes from the likes of Otis Redding and Sam and Dave. Colm Meaney of Next Generation ( , , )plays the Irish dad which he does wonderfully in several films.
