A Man of No Importance is a 1994 comedy drama film written by Barry Devlin and directed by Suri Krishnamma, starring Albert Finney.

His sister tries to find him a suitable woman, but his real passion is putting on amateur theatre productions of Oscar Wilde plays, particularly Salome.

When the theatre group meets, Alfie tells them that they are not doing The Importance of Being Earnest this year but rather Salome.

Byrne goes ahead with his amateur production with his friend Birdy as stage manager and Mrs. Crowe for costumes and assumes all is going well.

Alfie's sister sets up a dinner date and a trip to the zoo with his leading lady, Adele.
