Movie plot
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.

E' un film leggero, ma fresco e pervaso di una certa malinconia agrodolce che affascina.
Gli attori sono bravi e affiatati. Gli arrangiamenti musicali sono travolgenti. La trama è divertente e porta indietro con la memoria a esperienze giovanili personali.
La messianizzazione di Wilson Pickett è qualcosa di delizioso.
Buon film.
