Director Barry Levinson ('Rain Man') brings us a comedy set against the turbulent backdrop of Belfast in the 1980s.
Two barbers, Colm, a Catholic, and George, a Protestant, form an unlikely partnership to corner the toupee market in Northern Ireland. But with a rival hairpiece company, Toupee or Not Toupee, getting a jump on the competition, Colm and George have to come up with some creative sales techniques to bring a different kind of piece to Northern Ireland.
The screenplay for 'An Everlasting Piece' was written by Barry McEvoy, who also stars as Colm, with Brian F. O'Byrne (a Tony nominee for The Beauty Queen of Leenane on Broadway) starring as George. The film also stars Anna Friel (TV's Brookside) and Billy Connolly ('Mrs. Brown', 'Indecent Proposal')
