...really enjoyed this film Andrea Corr does an excellent job. Scenery is beautiful even though it might not be Clara County. Corr has that special 'look' that translates well on film. I must say..the fake fiddling is the worst I have seen. I am surprised that Andrea Corr (others) could not have make it more convincing...considering that Corr is a musician. Regardless, it's a story with heart and all the elements.
Boys & Girl from County Clare We love Irish movies, and were glad to add this one to our collection...very enjoyable movie that we will watch again and again!
Surprisingly engaging I got this because I was on an Irish movie kick and I like the Corrs (Andrea Corr plays the female lead). I wasn't expecting anything special so I was pleasently surprised. The movie had both funny and dramatic moments and the music was great. I rarely watch movies more than once but I've watched this several times. It's worth a look.
If you have the music, you have a friend for life The Aran Ceilidh Band Competition draws bands from all over Ireland, and in this case, Liverpool, to compete for the Ceilidh band trophy.
For the first time, Liverpudlian Jimmy McMahon (Meany) is entering a band for the competition. He knows he's up against his older brother John Joe (Hill). Bribing a Customs official and stealing the wheels off one of their buses is just the beginning of what the two brothers will do to beat each other. It's not just this contest, but rivalry from many years ago that propels their antagonism.
My husband and I watched this movie once this afternoon and turned around to see it again. It's funny, the music and scenary are gorgeous, and it's just well done all the way around. I rented this movie from Netflix, but it's on my list of things to buy.
The Boys and Girl from County Clare Entertaining movie with great Irish music and an excellent cast. The brothers who have had "life long issues" are played by well-seasoned actors and the young female lead Andrea Corr, from the music group, The Corrs, is just perfect.
