IRISH FILM GENRES PART 6: ROAD

One the more interesting of genres and Irish cinema has contributed. There was the vague Disappearance of Finbar and vaguer Molly's Way both dealing with Irish people travelling to North-Eastern Europe. Then there was the '80s recession era Hard shoulder and Joyriders. More recently there were the expensive romantic P.S. I love you and Leap year. Also, the lower-budget Crooked mile. Kids' road movies include Flight of the doves and Into the West. Should be a lot more common in Irish cinema as there's not much dialogue required and cheap to make?
