The Stars from the Commitments have played more than 1000 concerts and been seen by over 1,500,000 fans worldwide. Throw together a handful of unknown actors. Add a spoonful of soulful tunes. Whisk vigorously and what do you get? This was Alan Parker's recipe for success and he pulled a sure-fire hit out of the over with
The Commitments. It successfully took the movie musical into the 20th Century and is rated in the top 100 films of all time by the British Film Industry. It still remains a cult film to this day.
