I recently saw the movie The Commitments for the first time, and there’s a scene at a wedding where one of the characters is complaining about the terrible music that the band is playing. When the band takes a break, a drunk dude gets up and belts out The Proclaimers’ “Letter From America.” Although it’s not the kind of music he prefers, the character says something to the effect of “At least that’s music.”

Because this is a vehicle for positive expression, I won’t get into whether or not there’s any music in the rest of the film, but it was very nice to see the Reid brothers get some all-too-rare props.
