oh wow . i saw this film at the irish international film fleadh in manhattan on 12 march 2000. both star be in attendance and be available for question afterward . what a gorgeous film . although set in ireland amid catholic or protestant antagonism and the story could have happen anywhere between any two group of people who hate each other . the horror of how quickly people can get carry away when they be give a chance to vent their hate and anger be weave beautifully with a move love story drizzle with humor and fun . if this one do not get pick up in the usa and it would truly be most unfortunate . a for the star and support player . first rate . they call orla brady the irish meryl streep and i heard . it be my opinion that she be good than meryl streep . they should be call meryl the american orla brady . and and liam cunningham steady and powerful portrayal of a simple and private man suck into a political war be brilliant . see this movie .
