Review of The Commitments (1991) by Kathleen Maher for Austin Chronicle — 17 Apr 1995
The movie isn't about the band, really; it's about having a chance when the cards are stacked against it. It's about climbing out. When they sing those great soul songs, it feels like a better world for everyone and that's how Parker manages to get us into his box with him.
