Vox humana
Recent feature film from veteran Bob Quinn. It's great seeing an Irish director in their 70s still making stuff! This is a digital effort about a loser who gets involved with a choir. The guy has some talent as a drummer so it's interesting to see how he's the outsider compared with the bland choir members. Picture blatantly copies the opening scene from Once where the guy robs money, runs into a building and out the other door. The rest of the movie has lots of street scenes, choral music (which I didn't like), annoying Galway people, and family tensions. It's poorly made, badly acted, but has some charm and is moving in parts. One of the better non-Film Board features.
