No Looking Back

I'm at home with a cold, feeling a bit sorry for myself. Sitting on the sofa feeling sorry for myself was made a bit better by catching most of the movie No Looking Back (1998) on cable yesterday. I have to admit that I do like Edward Burns films, ever since seeing the Brothers McMullen in the mid 90's. There are parts of the No Looking Back without much dialogue but covered in music, and whether you like the music or not, the songs seem so appropriate in mood and tone, if not lyrically, that they really stand out.
There doesn't appear to be a soundtrack to the film, although Bruce Springsteen is easily spotted, as is his Mrs Patti Scialfa. Some helpful soul has posted a tracklisting on imdb here.
