Nothing personal
Another Troubles picture this one is told from the Loyalist side. A group of men drive round their area and pick up a Catholic that one of the group went to school with. Then tragedy ensues. That's about it but still an impressive movie. Best scene had a young Catholic girl visiting the Loyalists' pub at night. With few locations used the film emphasises the streets and terraced houses. Certainly an underrated Irish movie. Seems there's a new IFB movie out soon with the same title?
