SIXTEEN NEW IRISH MOVIES THIS YEAR!

According to today's Irish Mail on Sunday the Film Board is promising 16 new releases this year. Without mentioning the titles let's look at this magic number. Probably 2 will not get finished in time to get a release this year?. That leaves 14. Of those maybe 4 will be British productions funded by the Board? So that's about 10 left. Maybe 2 will be telefilms and won't get a theatrical release so that leaves 8. Of those left maybe 3 won't actually get a release because they can't find a distributor or a release slot? That leaves about 5 new Film Board releases for 2011? Of those 5 maybe 2 will be American productions partly funded by the Board without any Irish characteristics? So that leaves about 3 new Irish titles for this year which will probably get released in the IFI/Lighthouse? Cynical moi?
