The Snapper Summary One Little Secret Is About To Cause A Big, Big Commotion In This Hilariously Funny Hit Comedy That Has Everyone Talking! When The Oldest Daughter Of A Riotous, Close-knit Family Announces Her Unexpected Pregnancy, Everyone Wants To Know Who Fathered The "snapper" She's Carrying. But The Young Woman's Refusal To Reveal Anything About Her Predicament Sends The Entire Town Into A Tizzy! Critics Coast-to-coast Praised The Snapper As One Of The Year's Finest And Funniest Films -- It's Sure To Deliver Nonstop Laughs To You!

The Snapper may be the funniest film ever made about an unexpected pregnancy. In adapting the second novel of his popular Barrytown Trilogy, Irish author Roddy Doyle brilliantly captures the hilarious dynamics of a working-class family, the virulent gossip of their nosy Dublin neighbors, and the mixed emotions of a young woman on the verge of single motherhood. Sharon (Tina Kellegher) is the 20-year-old daughter of Dessie (Colm Meaney), and her refusal to name the father of her unborn child turns into an escalating crisis that's as traumatic (especially for Dessie) as it is delightfully amusing. The film was directed for British television by Stephen Frears, but its flawless blend of comedy and drama made it worthy of a theatrical release, landing it on many critics' top 10 lists for 1993. Best known as Chief O'Brien on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Meaney mines gold from the role of his career, and his fatherly love turns The Snapper into a heartwarming charmer with universal appeal. --Jeff Shannon
