This film has rich humour that stays with the viewer even more so than the ending does. It is a gritty, reality-based humour that anyone who ever lived in any small town can relate to, and former residents of small Catholic towns can have an extra chuckle or two about. I am intimately familiar with the town of New Waterford and walked away from the movie with new insights about the true nature of small towns.
The characters are very likeable ... Andrew McCarthy is good, in fact, I had teachers "from away" as they say there, who looked and acted like he did.
This movie really deserves some media attention.
