Free Movie: Millions

The Kansas City Star describes a movie called Millions as:
Irish siblings find a bag of cash; will they spend it on themselves or on good deeds?
6:30 p.m. Sunday, Westport Presbyterian Church

While the boys' father is played by Irish actor James Nesbitt, the brothers, like the movie and its setting, are British. Northern English, yes, the northwest even, possibly somewhere between Liverpool - the capital of Ireland - and Manchester - which gave us The Smiths and Oasis, but English nonetheless.

That said, Danny Boyle is a fabulous director, and you should absolutely see this tremendous family film. Fantastical, funny, touching, stylish, warm, and original without being sentimental or stupid. I couldn't recommend it highly enough.
