I hate the trope (if you can call it that) of movies ‘changing people’ but Sing Street genuinely broke me down and built what remained into the foundations of who I am today when I watched it for the first time when I was 15. I still stand by the fact that “Up” is the best love song ever written and that a more beautiful depiction of how it feels to discover yourself as a teenager hasnt been put to film since. Big ups the Irish and Dublin.
