The Rivals

The Rivals is the tale of the two communities, one white collar (Cape Elizabeth) and one blue (Rumford), united by a common dream; winning the football state championship. The physical conflict takes place on the football field, but the real story is teaching kids the game of life and the balance between success and respect.
"The Rivals is a hugely entertaining, remarkably perceptive and yes, downright nail-biting true story. " - Ken Eisen. MIFF Founder and Programmer

Robbie O'Connell
Tuesday, March 16, 2010, 7:30pm
The Boston Globe describes Robbie O'Connell as "a writer of timeless-sounding, emotionally powerful and often hilarious songs" and places him "among the most respected guitarists, singer and songwriters in Celtic music."
"O'Connell is a songwriter of vision, awareness and maturity. He has the ability to take an everyday experience or thought and turn it into an effective structured song. All his material is melodic and accessible and his keen sense of humour is never far from the surface."
“A National Treasure” is how, Ireland’s top music magazine, Hot Press, describes Robbie O’Connell, “... a man blessed with an enviable turn of phrase and a gift for melody bestowed on only the few.”
