Sing Street

Premise: Set in 1980 something in Dublin, Ireland, a teenage boy escapes his family and bullies at school by forming a band to impress a girl he likes. 

Review: This movie spoke to me in so many ways.  From the 80s music, to the punk inspired clothes, to the incredible script and actors, I truly loved this movie.  John Carney has a way of cutting to the heart with his plot lines and characters. I believe this will be up for many awards especially Best Screenplay.  The performance by Ferdia Walsh-Peelo was phenomenal, especially for a first time in major leading role.

Ratings:  Half a Glass of Wine (so in other words LOVED)

Director: John Carney

Cast: Ferdia Walsh-Peelo, Aidan Gillen, Maria Doyle Kennedy
