Agnes Brown
|
Story of a Dublin woman recently widowed with 7 children. She has a market stall which is presumably based on Moore Street, Dublin. Tom Jones makes a cameo appearance. The movie is absolutely hysterical. Angelica Huston plays the lead and is very impressive as an Irish woman. The supporting cast is superb and reminds of many happy holidays in Dublin with my grandparents.
