The Wind that Shakes the Barley (or The Obligatory IRA Film)

I know I promised this two days ago, but I had a bout of anxiety and knew it would not be wise to watch such a movie under those conditions. Now, I'm sick with a cold but in considerably good spirits otherwise. It was perfect time to curl up with tea/fresh squeezed OJ (one of the few pros about living in Southern California) and porridge and watch

Great review! I watched this with my mom and we had to take a break from it and watch the other half the next day because it was very..how do I put this? Serious? LOL Also, it was a little hard for me to keep up with the dialogue because of many of the actor's accents so I had to pay closer attention than I do when watching most films. It was a good film, though, if understandably a downer. Also because I had my mom sitting there she was able to explain anything I didn't understand about the conflict LOL.

Yeah. I should also edit this to add that the emotions portrayed, especially at the end, were very realistic. And yeah, SRS BSNS!! =P
