Sing Street: The Cult Film That Should've Been Bigger
from Back to the Big Screen with Spencer and Sophie · host Spencer
This week on Big Screen, Spencer and Sophie review Sing Street — the 2016 John Carney film that was quietly one of the best movies of its year, overshadowed by La La Land and destined to become a word-of-mouth classic. Set in 1980s Dublin, it's a coming-of-age story about music, escape, first love, and one boy forming a band to impress a girl. We cover the casting, the era, the soundtrack, John Carney's personal connection to the story, and why unknown actors almost always make for better films. Rated 9/10 by Sophie, 8.3 by Spencer.
