  "The Commitments" is a band made up of working-class Dubliners that was formed by an ambitious young Dubliner to bring soul music to the area. The film is filled with great 1960s'-like music. This movie was adapted from a Roddy Doyle novel, which was the first of his "Barrytown" trilogy. The other two novels, which continue slices of life of working-class Dubliners, are "The Snapper" and "The Van," which were also made into movies.
