You may not understand half of the things the characters are saying when you watch the Irish comedy that is Waking Ned Devine, but that’s part of its charm. This wild black farce (originally titled Waking Ned) follows the tale of how a small town off the coast of Ireland committed fraud against the lotto after their friend passed away upon winning 6.8 million. Not only is the character of Ned Devine a dead man more fascinating than many characters we see in most films, but Waking Ned Devine‘s commentary around how we face our elder years is a heartwarming and poignant sentiment that never feels silly, despite the silly actions our characters, like Jackie (Ian Bannen) and Michael (David Kelly), commit. However, despite the at times hard-to-hear dialogue, the cozy community that Waking Ned Devine creates will make you wish you could live there, even if you couldn’t join in the chatter half the time.
