Everlasting Piece
I hadn't seen this movie in a long time, but I remember loving it. It's these two barbers in 80's Ireland (yes with all the fun of the IRA that goes along with it). They work at an insane asylum. A patient gets admitted who had been a toupee salesman, but got committed for scalping people. The barbers get their hands no his list and start selling toupees in an effort to make money. Once you get over the considerable accents they have, it's hysterical. Their families and friends are hilarious. Even the IRA is put in a semi-comedic and campy light. It's got some drama, it's got some chase scenes, it's got some moronic low-brow humor, but all in all it's a good film. There's a wee bit of swearing, so I wouldn't pop this in around your kids or anything. But it's a great film (and not just because I love Irish films).
