I'm having trouble reconciling that the lead is Rumplestiken from Once Upon a Time.
Although I didn't find it especially funny, I appreciate that it was surprisingly progressive for 1997 and included a lot of social issues. I liked the audition sequence and the final dance.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A scrappy, warmhearted comedy about working-class men in post-industrial Sheffield finding dignity and camaraderie through an outrageous scheme. It's funny and touching in equal measure, with real heart beneath the laughs.
