Great movie. I will have to watch it again sometime soon, see if it passes the mom test so Colleen can see it.
I used to date a woman who had recently moved back to this part of the country and until she got an apt. was living w/ her mother. She and I had rented some movies, some Disney ones for a little girl that her mom was babysitting. I had told the woman I loved The Big Chill and when we got home, her mother raised hell with me because it wasn't appropriate for children. I hadn't planned on the girl watching it, anyway, but that didn't matter to the woman, just having it in her house was akin to me being a baby rapist. I despised my g/f's mother and even more after she tried to humiliate me.
Anyway, I remember there being some language, but just went to IMdb and checked. On the Parents Guide for The Commitments, it says language, some sexual references, but no nudity, lots of cursing, smoking and drinking and some fighting/violence. I guess I had forgotten most of all that.
I understand about limiting a child's exposure to that sort of thing and if I had kids, I prob. would have gone overboard in doing so, but I remember reading books as a kid that were way too adult for my age. Of course, there weren't any movies like that back then, not even much cursing in flicks until the early 70's.
Yes, but around 1966 or 1967 you came out to the car where I was with my boyfriend and asked me what "whore" meant. What had YOU been reading or watching to know that word? People didn't say stuff like that back then and you sure didn't say it in mixed company. I remember being embarrassed and most likely told you to go ask Mother. I was 16 or 17 so you would have been 11-12 years old. Maybe I didn't know what it was either! LOL! Kids now call each other worse words than that in grade school.
