Treacle-A I saw 'Hear My Song' every night for a week when we showed it at the cinema I worked at in 1993. The audiences were small, but then they always were back then for British movies on limited budgets. 'Hear My Song' came out without any of the showy publicity that so many other movies did that year, there were no press packs or standees in the lobby, but still it knocked spots of the majority of movies I had to sit through that year. I loved its sly, charming leading man Adrian Dunbar, and his best friend the then all-but- unknown James Nesbitt as Fin and their adventure in search of a legend who (at that time) I'd never even heard of. The story follows the classic Heroes Journey structure, and is filled with pathos, great music and scenery, wonderful performances from a stellar cast and a wry very- British sense of humour that still has me chuckling whenever I recount my favourite scenes. I have a real soft spot for this film and always list it as one of my favourite British movies and force friends to watch my much sought after R2 DVD copy whenever I can. 'Funny Bones' which Chelsom also wrote and directed is a fantastic movie which rarely seems to get a showing on TV despite being one of Jerry Lewis' finest films IMO.

OB-Shane This is a stunning delightful story of one man's quest to do right by his girlfriend and his community. The Irish humour is great. The writing is tight. The performances are both touching and funny. One to watch more than once.

movie pimp I stumbled on to this film by accident, and ended up absolutely loving it. The cast is first-rate in this tale of a music promoter who is trying to find a disgraced tenor from years ago. Ned Beatty is wonderful as the tenor, and the comedy in the film just seems to click - such as the great scene with the cow. This film is highly recommended to anyone who is looking for a hidden little gem to pass on to friends.

Eddy-13 The film has some great scenes and it is a fairly good movie but it probably should have been much better given the cast, the locations and the story line. The director didn't pull it together. There were too many scenes that should have been edited or even deleted to make the movie more compact and direct.
