    If one great thing comes from this wonderful film is that Seana Kerslake gets more film work. I wonder if this film is getting a wider release outside Ireland cause it deserves it as it's a cracking little film.

    I actually didn't think it was going to be as good as all the reviews here but it well exceeded my expectations! I really loved this film! It was very funny and well worth seeing :)

    Amazing isn't it, she said in a interview she works part time at a library, although she's recently done a RTE show and does plenty of theatre but I doubt she makes enough to quit the part time work. If this was a American indie film or even a British one (have no doubt this would get acclaim no matter where it's released), she probably be at least getting small roles in bigger films and main ones in indie films or plenty of TV work. Certainly it must make you humble though, from a massively acclaimed film where many say you should be a big star in the future then back to the part time job a few weeks later.

    Really enjoyed this movie, excellent. And as 'social commentaries' go.....its not a bad effort (in other words, better than most).

    Maybe you searched the .com site instead of .co.uk?

    Got it for around 14 euro from Tower Records, was cheaper then on amazon. One of those films you get on DVD before it becomes a rare find after a year or so.

    Still holds up brilliantly and Seana Kerslake is still a talent to watch although wasn't a big fan of her RTE show Can't Cope Won't Cope although she was good in it. Rewatching the Trailer for the film the other day and it totally sells you a different kind of film then it really is. Still think it's one of the better Irish films of recent years.

    I've just watched this and its easily one of the best films I've seen this year. Living in the UK I'm really surprised it didn't get even a small release here (I'd only heard of it due to it winning at the IFTAs), hopefully it'll pick up more of an audience through streaming.

    Seen this last night I thought it was great ,
    One thing that was a bit off putting was Seana over acted in parts, and it would happen out of no where ,
