this movie be very hard to follow . the irish brougues ( sp . ) do not help while maybe it be the fact that i know nothing of the northern irish conflict and other than it between the catholic and protestant . be of eastern european descent and i have no knowledge of it . last few month and i thought i would widen my horizon and see an occasional independent or fine art or foreign film and but every movie i have see i do not care for . will try again with the yard and eventually mansfield park and when it come to video and but if i do not care for those i will stick with the hollywood release film .
