W.C.

What a W.C.? It's a toilet. But it's also an Irish movie about a jazz bar and the various characters which frequent this W.C. There is the director of the movie playing a guy just out of Kilmainham for gambling stolen money. His nasty brother is the manager and gives the director a bad time. Then there's a Russian girl who works in the ladies toilets. She's also got out of a different jail because she was brought here to work as a prostitute. That's why she's hiding out in the jazz club. Why a talented jazz band can attract so many dodgy customers I don't know. But that's the story. No, there's also a subplot about getting 'robbed' and claiming insurance money. There's a tramp in the backyard. He knows the police quite well. Then there's a guy in a helicopter. No wait. It's supposed to be ariel shots to give the movie class. Like the start of Pete's Meteor. Anyone see that movie. Anyone? W.C. is filmed on video and is set in the Celtic Tiger era. Remember that? Remember all the 'great' movies produced by that era. Even one?
