Silicone Valerie

About This Movie

So, 'Silicone Valerie' is a quirky little gem from 1998 featuring Ian McElhinney as this priest caught in a rather humorous predicament. It’s set against the backdrop of the gorgeous Antrim Coast Road, which really adds to the vibe. Valerie, the young woman in question, is delightfully ambitious—she’s got her eyes set on the Miss Conneybeg beauty pageant and is not shy about recruiting the priest's help. The tone is light and comedic, with a bit of charm that feels uniquely British. The pacing has its ups and downs, but it all fits the whimsical nature of the story. The performances, particularly McElhinney's, have a certain warmth that keeps it engaging. It's the kind of film that dances through its twists with a playful spirit, making it a curious watch.
