i notice that a lot of comment such a yawn and yawn . another film about northern ireland be write by people who do not actually live there . well and i be bear in belfast in 1960 and live there till 1982 and and i can tell you that when you be yawn at the news about people be murder and torture and kidnap and beat and burn out of their home and intimidate and imprison without trial and the people i live among be go through it . i think this be an excellent film and very realistic . julie walter accent be spot on and and the humour be and too . people who suffer greatly stay sane by develop a kind of gallows humour . if you think it be a trite film and you must have have an easy life . you have probably spend too much of your time watch movie . this be a luxury accord to those who live in peace while be grateful you do .
