Author: [log in to unmask] Date: 12/15/94 11:59 PM [Editor's note: This message was submitted to SCREEN-L by the "Author" noted above, and not by Jeremy Butler ([log in to unmask]).] The writer of the commitments, Roddy Doyle, also wrote "The Snapper," which some viewed as the sequel to "The Commitments." His third novel in the series, whose name i can't remember, won the Booker prize last year. It's something like "Paddy Clark, Ha Ha Ha." Anyway, an actual sequel to the storyline has been in the works for a while and I think they actually started filming it, but I haven't heard anything for a while.
