7.3Jimmy Rabbitte, just a thick-ya out of school, gets a brilliant idea: to put a soul band together in Barrytown, his slum home in north Dublin. First he needs musicians and singers: things slowly start to click when he finds three fine-voiced females virtually in his back yard, a lead singer (Deco) at a wedding, and, responding to his ad, an aging trumpet player, Joey "The Lips" Fagan.

The Commitments is een Iers-Brits-Amerikaanse film van Alan Parker die werd uitgebracht in 1991. Het scenario van Roddy Doyle is gebaseerd op zijn gelijknamige roman uit 1987 die het eerste luik vormt van zijn The Barrytown Trilogy. De twee volgende delen werden later verfilmd als The Snapper (1993) en The Van (1996), beide onder regie van Stephen Frears.
