IRA informant
Lousy Troubles movie involving an IRA bomber who turns against his comrades. The kind of film where a character says they'll do something and the next scene shows them doing the opposite! Lots of below-average dialogue and acting. Some interesting footage of Belfast (and Dublin!). Some interesting class conflict between the posh British soldiers and working-class IRA. Lots of clichéd stuff here including the silly freeze frame final shot. Like Harry's game and Cal there's a couple of arty sex scenes! But the chances of seeing this long forgotten (and dated) '90s movie are remote.
