Terrible movie that contains every cliché from recent Irish cinema. Rubbish acting from the kids, nasty nuns, one-dimensional courtroom scenes, singing in pubs, rugby, drinking, fights, based on a true story, 1950s era, lots of reaction shots, maudlin soundtrack music, and of course poverty. Even worse is that Alan Bates is in the movie yet there's another actor who looks exactly like him so you can't tell who's who! After his wife leaves Brosnan the children get taken away so he challenges and changes the constitution. Blame him that we no longer lay claim to Northern Ireland!
