    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Ferdia Walsh-Peelo's father and uncles attended the real Synge Street Christian Brothers School.
    • Goofs
      The Lalor family watches Duran Duran's video for "Rio" - Duran Duran: Rio (1982) - on Top of the Pops (1964). Brendan claims it could go either way as to whether or not they succeed; however, the song was released in 1982 and the film takes place in 1985, by which time Duran Duran was already an extremely successful band and a household name.
    • Quotes

      Raphina: Your problem is that you're not happy being sad, but that's what love is, Cosmo: happy-sad.

    • Crazy credits
      One of the disclaimers in the closing credits: "This is a period film. Synge Street School, like much of Ireland, was a very different place in the 1980's [sic] than it is now. Today Synge Street School is a progressive, multi-cultural school with an excellent academic record and a committed staff of teachers."

    Surprisingly delightful
    I didn't expect such a good movie to be honest. The plot sounded interesting but when you watch the movie you get hooked in about 10 minutes. The characters are incredible with their own personality ( i really liked main characters brother , his story was great). The soundtrack was...oh man...it was incredible and a great addition to the movie.

    I believe that this is in my top 3 movies of the year so far and that's why everyone should give it a watch. Trust me you will not be disappointed at all. Its an amazing movie for all ages.

    Also the acting is great and the 80s of course give the movie a nostalgic and beautiful tone
