The Commitments
A Comedy and Drama film released in 1991, The Commitments runs 1h 58m and comes from the United States. Soap2Day lists it with Alan Parker directing and Robert Arkins and Michael Aherne in the cast. It holds 7.3/10 from 636 votes. Jimmy Rabbitte, just a thick-ya out of school, gets a brilliant idea: to put a soul band together in Barrytown, his slum home in north Dublin. First he needs musicians and singers: things slowly start to click when he finds three fine-voiced females virtually in his back yard, a lead singer (Deco) at a wedding, and, responding to his ad, an aging trumpet player, Joey "The Lips" Fagan.
