One Hundred and Eighty!!!

About This Movie

So, 'One Hundred and Eighty!!!' is this quirky little gem from 1981 that manages to blend the tension of a darts tournament with societal themes through the unexpected sit-in of the players' wives. The atmosphere is quite unique; you can feel the pub's energy shift as the stakes rise—not just in the game, but in the personal lives of the characters. The pacing is interesting, often lingering in moments that might seem mundane but actually highlight the absurdity of the situation. The performances have this rough edge; they feel authentic, almost like you're eavesdropping on real life. It’s a film that stands apart for its oddball premise and the way it captures a slice of life rarely explored in cinema.

This film retains a certain obscurity, making it somewhat of a hidden treasure among collectors. The distribution formats have varied over the years, and you’ll find it more frequently on VHS than in any recent digital releases, which adds to its allure. Scarcity in good condition is common, especially since it didn’t see wide circulation back in the day. Enthusiasts often seek it out for its offbeat plot and the authentic portrayal of pub culture in the early '80s.
