* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: The original book was written in the late [[TheEighties 1980s]] when Roddy Doyle noted a significant rise in pregnancies in young women in the suburb where he worked as a teacher. While the film has a minor SettingUpdate with the only notable cultural difference being that the film now happens a couple of years after Ireland's first time qualifying for the World Cup. Attitudes towards single parenting, victim blaming, and consent are all typical of the period in Ireland. Notably, the book Dessie checks out of the library was banned in Ireland at the time due to it providing information about abortion.
