comment
Advertised Extra: Aidan Gillen and Maria Doyle Kennedy barely feature in the film. Trailers made it seem as if Evan had a bigger part. While his influence is definitely there, he's offscreen for most of the film.

Badass Bystander: A random student prevents Brother Baxter from turning off the lights before a song about him gets played - by smashing the switches with a fire extinguisher.

Abusive Parents: Barry has an alcoholic father who physically and emotionally abuses him. Raphina has a blink-and-you'll-miss-it line implying that her father sexually abused her while her mother was committed.

Awful Wedded Life: Conor's parents fight constantly. Brendan describes them as two youngsters who "got married just so they could have sex" and tired of each other quickly.
