What irish movies should I know?
Not necessarily political.
What irish movies should I know?
Not necessarily political.
Even though there were no fucking horses in the movie.

It's the place in the bible were Jesus was crucified ya git.
My Left foot is essential potatocore
See also The Guard with same director + Gleeson
Well this one is definitely political. And pro-socialist too.
Is Michael Collins from 1996 better? I barely remember it.
who killed the dog ad why was it CIA?
Based Taffin with Pierce Brosnan
Watch Peaky Blinders on Netflix. Can't wait for season 3.
Sucked.
Good, not great though.
Sucked, though I like the political butthurt it caused.
im already watching it and im 3 episodes in.
Not really potatoe kino though.
True. But the IRA pop up now and then
fair enough. And I really like the series.
There's also Bloody Sunday but that's the other Ireland.
Fucking Taigs
Every IRA sympathizing republicuck needs to be hanged for war crimes
magnificent trailer, famalam.
Anyone seen this one?
Is it any good?
dun't be touchin me red right 'and mate
braveheart is an irish one, innit?
Does this count as potatoe kino?
Irishfag here.
The Butcher Boy is god-tier.
The Field is great. Richard Harris is phenomenal.
In The Name Of The Father.
Michael Collins.
Adam & Paul
Yes. It's excellent
Were you sad when he was kill user?
You were watching TCM today? Weren't you?
I Went Down is the best Irish movie ever made, fact. As of a few years ago there was literally only a shitty VHS rip up on torrent sites, so if you like 'em relatively obscure, that's your boy.
The Commitments is good, too, and if you like The Commitments there's a couple of other Roddy Doyle adaptations (also with Colm Meaney).
It was good, but it hampered itself by trying to be great, imo. And the worst child actor I've ever seen. Loved Dylan Moran in it, though, and Gleeson is always solid, see I Went Down for instance.
>NGHEYE LUVV YEW EILEEEEEN
But seriously yeah, damn good movie. Based Day-Lewis. Solely because of this film, it was common to refer to the mentally handicapped as "christies" when I was a kid.
There was a horse in that movie though. Dylan Moran was riding one.
haven't seen into the west or garage mentioned yet
it's all ireland
>The Commitments
Mah lad.
The Snapper, The Van, Into the West, The Commitments. All fine examples of /Ireland in the bleak late 80s-early 90s/-core.
>into the west
Yeah for good fucking reason. Who wants to see a bunch of pikey cunts literally named Tayto or whatever. Gas them all.
it is literally CulchieKino
you're just assblasted cos you'll never go riding way out west
Big difference between culchie and traveller, boss. Culchies eat porridge, fuck their cousins and go to de dishco on a Friday night. Travellers eat stolen porridge, rape their sisters and steal scrap metal after being refused into de dishco.
Angelas Ashes is good,
The General is too:
youtube.com
Also, In The Name Of The Father/ The Boxer if you like day lewis
Intermission for banter with Farrell and Killian Muprhy, fairly decent too:
youtube.com
Calvary and Cavalry are two different things m8
KnackerKino then
Who here /secret_of_roan_inish/ ?
Yeah, I forgot Intermission. Pretty fucking good.
a beautiful comfy story user
Not a movie but I really enjoyed Charlie.
Why was he such a cunt?
>that story of the child in the hospital
>WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU TELL ME THAT
MAYBE YOU SHOULDN'T BE LIVING HHHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEE
OHHH... NOW RAYSHIN...
keked at the kung-fu moves he did when Gleeson rushed him, too.
...
The Grasser
This gave me some feels. Also deals with the subject of my girlfriend's son so it's right up Sup Forums's alley.
This film was made by someone who clearly did absolutely no research or even ATTEMPT to make it vaguely realistic.
The film was like a parallel universe Northern Ireland at some points
...
How bad is it on a scale from 1 to Captain Planet?
>we'll kick the Fenian Prods out of here
Atlantean (Bob Quinn)
H3 (Les Blair)
All Souls Day (Andrew Baybutt)
Build Something Modern (Paul Rowley/Nicky Gogan)
Silence (Pat Collins)
I Could Read the Sky (Nichola Bruce)

>potatofu hasn't been posted
shame on you Sup Forums
Best Irish film no one I know has ever seen is 'Saltwater' (2000) with the legend, Brian Cox and Tomo from Sperm.com
Some of me other favourites. A lot obvious.
Some are merely set in Ireland.
>Into the West
Nostalgia, but it's actually a wonderful film
>The Commitments
An old classic
>The Field
Harris was born to play the role. Amazing.
>Barry Lyndon
One of the greatest films ever.
>My Left Foot
Great. Could've been a load of mawkish shite.
>The Butcher Boy
Liked it more than I thought I would as I think the kid would be annoying.
>Ryan's Daughter
Unreal cinematography. That scene in the storm was worth the year wait Lean took.
>Intermission
It's a bit of fun. Nothing amazing. Colm Meaney is a legend.
>Song of the Sea
Stunning. The Irish Studio Ghibli.
Jesus, me grammar. I've been sleep deprived for a few days now and working like a dog.
Some of those sentences are incomprehensible.
Ah well.
I don't even rate Irish girls, still literally went to school with hotter chicks. Do not see the hype at all.
Inside I'm Dancing
It was a good performance from McAvoy but the end let it down.
>The only time a baby doesn't look like every other baby is when it's a really ugly baby. Now, unless you're about to show me a photo of a really ugly baby, I don't want to see it
Not Potatokino per se but Black Books, Shaun of the Dead and Run Fatboy Run are all essential Morancore
Never heard of that last one, will check it out.
>WTSTB sucked
you're either English, a pleb , or both.
Fantastic Film
Pure Kino.
Perrier's Bounty
Grabbers
Man About Dog
The General
What's that movie where the IRA kidnaps a nigger and kills him, but then the guy who killed the nigger goes to cuck him by shagging his girlfriend?
You are thinking Neil Jordans The crying game, if you plan on actually watching it do not look up any spoilers whatsoever for THAT twist.
The Crying Game. Man, was that a good movie.
Seconding Adam & Paul.
Small world isn't it, old friend of mine actually played music with that guy.
Man About Dog is a good, pointless, funny movie.
I've seen it, that twist got me out of nowhere, was not expecting it, really didn't like the movie.

Is In Bruges Irish?
Yes, no, kind of, not really, a bit, somewhat etc.
run fatboy run is pure shit
o shit mine too
WHERE THE FUCK IS PIC RELATED, LOYALIST SCUM
That fucking Yankee revenant has no business making movies about the Troubles.
>catholicism the action comedy
It's very Irish
Irish director and two Irish actors, so kinda.
Lenny Abrahamson has set the bar too high for himself with Adam and Paul and I'm skeptical if he'll be able to top that film.
What Richard did got better when the fight went down, Frank felt like a better drama than a comedy. Room is a good film apart from the sound choices (voiceover/music) which rob it of perfection.
...
In Bruges.
Okay it's not an Irish film per se, however Farrell and Gleeson are fantastic and the movie itself is really fucking good, at times hilarious. And Bruges is so picturesque, not a shithole at all.
>They're filming midgets!
...
That was pretty good, even if it was only a spudfucker reskin of some cheese-eating surrender monkey shit.
>tfw no qt22/7 culchie gf
And of course she obviously ended up with the rich kid, let's not fool ourselves.
