Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library’s Magazine Room transforms into a Theater, complete with popcorn and conversation for our musical film series.

Film buff Dan Devaney, is eager to share some of our favorite films. Dan is a retired attorney who practiced business law in Hawaii for more than 30 years. He now spends much of his time gardening, cooking, working on classic cars, and of course watching movies.

Now Showing: The Commitments (1991), directed by Alan Parker, follows a group of Dubliners who forma  band to play American soul music. Roger Ebert noted it is “one of the few movies about a fictional band that’s able to convince us the band is real…”. In fact the band has played many concerts since the film’s release!
