I visited Kilmainham Gaol when I went to Dublin. The tour guide showed us the cell where De Valera was imprisoned, and also brought us to the exact spot in the prison yard where the 1916 executions took place. I don't know if he was new to the job or if he'd done it a hundred times, but the tour guide couldn't talk about the executions without faltering and choking up.
There’s an energy there. It’s not often you get to walk IN a place of actual execution and I believe their spirits are there. For years, the gaol was abandoned until a group of elderly volunteers who were in the Rising brought it back. It’s a place of pilgrimage and it’s sacred ground tbh.
The fact they showed the suffering of Thomas J. Clarke after he was shot by firing squad is a credit to this film and director. It's what actually happened. He suffered for hrs after being shot. The greatest Fenian hero Ireland has known. First signature of the proclamation and forever it's greatest martyr
I think you might have been confused with James Connolly in this scene. Connolly was shot in the leg at the GPO. He was the last leader to be executed (May 12th 1916). His wound was infected and had grown weak. I believe his execution fueled hatred toward British rule in Ireland. They made him suffer for days and then killed him.
@@phillipbrennan3327 That is just not true, James Connolly was being cared for in Dublin Castle by doctors and nurses, some of whom were British. We know that Asquith put a stop to the executions on 11 May 1916 in part thanks to that great speech by John Dillion in the HofC in his 'Rivers of Bloody" speech and his verbal mauling of Asquith. Lets also remember who was calling publicly for Connolly's execution to go ahead...Yes, that bloody Irishman the same Irishman who in Aug 1913 created his own "Bloody Sunday". I should add also that every single witness for the prosecution in Roger Casements trial..was...Yes...Irish!
@@mancityfan2004 For me, nothing beats Sinead's version. I can't listen to it without weeping, both for those brave men and now also for Sinead herself.
Michael Collins and De Valera never met each other during the rising and In reality, the British already knew who the "ringleaders" where because they all had their names signed on the Irish Republic Proclamation, and Pearse himself surrendered in person to General Lowe who was commander of the British Army in Dublin.
I took an escorted tour of Ireland in 2005. We passed the Post Office which still has bullet holes. The guide said that a number of Irish were undecided or didn't support the Rising until Connolly, who was badly wounded and maybe a week from death at best, was tied to a chair and shot. Connolly, Amritsar, the Bogside Massacre...English sure have a way of reaping the whirlwind.
200,000 Irishmen volunteered for the British Army in WW1, compared to 2000 in the uprising. Also, more Irish people died in the Irish Civil War then in the revolution. Because these men were terrorists and when it came to governing they tried to kill each other. Rip Michael.

Pretty shitty that they executed a dying man (James Connolly) He didn't have long left to live yet they still shot him Didn't go down well with the public I believe
History is full of far more "shity" actions from the British as they invaded the country of Ireland. I'd rather have a sister in a house of ill repute than a brother living in Britian!
It did not, indeed. It was only after the British brutal reaction to the Rising when majority public opinion in Ireland changed towards the support of independence and resistance against Brits. Before that most people believed that reasonable cooperation with British rule and gaining autonomy was the way to go.
The love of a nation of that your family has brought up on. Respect honor and and pride. It matters not if u are born in the green fields of IRELAND or over on the British island of tyranny. It's clear to see that the IRISH spirit will never fade. TIOCFAIDH AR LA 💯💯
Why would they need a trail? You mean "Trial"...and that is just not true of course they had a trial, they were all CM'd for goodness sake, where do you guys get some of this stuff from?
@@TheStewieOne I'm not saying their trials were fair mind and of course Thomas Kent was trialled and executed for the wrong crime as conceded by Asquith in the HofC. That is the importance of Appendix II for the British which historians never tell you about, probably because they don't even know about it themselves, and in todays world it would be considered absolutely illegal.
They couldn't have it both ways. A civilian trial would likely result in death by hanging on a charge of treason. The British Army gave them a soldier's death by firing squad following a court martial. No shame in that.
A lot of this is hagiography. Eamon wasn’t saved because he was American, but because the British were concerned about the impact on public opinion the executions had (it turned Irish opinion in favour of the risers when the majority had opposed them) and Eamon de Valera was seen as too unimportant to be worth executing. He also surrendered laters and had his trial later. This burnishes him with credentials he doesn’t deserve
Spot on, Dev was saved from execution along with the other "69" who were also sentenced to be executed purely through good luck and timing. His CM was on 9th May and Asquith put a stop to the executions on 11th May. The only reason Connolly and Mac Diarmada were executed on 12th May was because they were both signatories, but Dev was obviously wasn't.

It definitely favors Collins vis-a-vis the Treaty, but, in my opinion, it doesn't go NEARLY harshly ENOUGH. Dev's opposition to the Treaty was incredibly more selfish and stupid than this movie shows.
The Taoiseach Eamon de Valera made an official visit to offer his and the Irish people's condolences to the German ambassador at the death of Adolf Hitler.
This is a common misconception. Ireland, as a neutral country did not condone the actions of a man, but De Valera, in his position was merely acting in the manner befitting his role. In this regard he was making a consideration to a nation on the loss of their head of state. Ireland was not at war with Germany.
Doing this was probably the dumbest thing that the British forces could’ve done. By executing the leaders of this uprising, the British did exactly the wrong thing. All they ended up doing was turning the men they had executed into martyrs and further alienating the already tenuous mentality’s in Ireland against them. Somehow even theorized that the actions taken by the British forces, and such directly led to the decades of violence between the Irish nationalists, and the British forces. They actually did an equally stupid thing, not even 30 years later, when directly, following the end of the second world war, the British executed a large number of Indians, who had joined the Japanese in an effort to push Britain out of the subcontinent.
It's was nothing to do with the British forces, the British Forces didn't introduce order 256 did they? or had you forgotten that? I assume you think its also OK thought for Mick Collins and his Irish Free Stater traitors to executed many time more brave Irish Republicans than the Brits did in 1916.
@@skippership7 i’m not saying that Collins and his associates were in the right. But I’m also not saying that neither were the British forces. By executing the leaders all they did like I said before is turn them into martyrs for the Irish nationalists. Now yes, there were Irish nationalists who felt that what was happening during the Easter rising was actually doing more harm for their cause than good. But unfortunately, it seems that all throughout history, the British empire seems to only ever respond to the application of force. The only time that didn’t happen was when Gandhi was around. To my knowledge that’s the only time a non-violent call for independence really worked. And the one thing that I’ve always wondered is why is Britain even to this day so hell-bent on holding Northern Ireland? What does Ireland have that Britain wants to keep?
@@ultrajd Simple question for you...Who introduced order 256 during the Easter Rising? Simple question that deserves simple answer from you. Ref NI, there is only one group of people who want to keep NI in the UK, and that is the Conservative government and their supporters, look at the Official full name of the Conservative Party lol, its called the "Conservative and Unionist Party" what does that tell you? For all the shouting of "reunification" many people the south don't want it either, or don't want to pay for it. Do you realise how much unification is going to cost every men women and child in the South PA? Go on have a guess!

Doing this was probably the dumbest thing that the British forces could’ve done. By executing the leaders of this uprising, the British did exactly the wrong thing. All they ended up doing was turning the men they had executed into martyrs and further alienating the already tenuous mentality’s in Ireland against them. Somehow even theorized that the actions taken by the British forces, and such directly led to the decades of violence between the Irish nationalists, and the British forces.
They actually did an equally stupid thing, not even 30 years later, when directly, following the end of the second world war, the British executed a large number of Indians, who had joined the Japanese in an effort to push Britain out of the subcontinent.
It's was nothing to do with the British forces, the British Forces didn't introduce order 256 did they? or had you forgotten that? I assume you think its also OK thought for Mick Collins and his Irish Free Stater traitors to executed many time more brave Irish Republicans than the Brits did in 1916.
@@skippership7 i’m not saying that Collins and his associates were in the right. But I’m also not saying that neither were the British forces. By executing the leaders all they did like I said before is turn them into martyrs for the Irish nationalists. Now yes, there were Irish nationalists who felt that what was happening during the Easter rising was actually doing more harm for their cause than good. But unfortunately, it seems that all throughout history, the British empire seems to only ever respond to the application of force. The only time that didn’t happen was when Gandhi was around. To my knowledge that’s the only time a non-violent call for independence really worked.
And the one thing that I’ve always wondered is why is Britain even to this day so hell-bent on holding Northern Ireland? What does Ireland have that Britain wants to keep?
@@ultrajd Simple question for you...Who introduced order 256 during the Easter Rising? Simple question that deserves simple answer from you.
Ref NI, there is only one group of people who want to keep NI in the UK, and that is the Conservative government and their supporters, look at the Official full name of the Conservative Party lol, its called the "Conservative and Unionist Party" what does that tell you? For all the shouting of "reunification" many people the south don't want it either, or don't want to pay for it. Do you realise how much unification is going to cost every men women and child in the South PA? Go on have a guess!
@@skippership7 Okay. You’ve made your point.
That myth was debunked.
Ireland is now African instead of British
Shame on those who made this film, they have done irreversible harm to the truth and our history.
The fact most of these comments are in English shows that Ireland is little more than an county of Britain. Use your native tongue and dont use the language of the English
Posted in English 🤣
"little more than an county of Britain"
1. It's a not an
2. They have a President
3. They are more well off than we are in the North
4. Your comment is dumb
5. If Canada Australia and the US can use English why not the Irish
6. Why SHOULD they use Irish?
Answer these to give your comment ANY sort of point
@@amaritineenthusiastnot too mention Ireland was the first island to split from the main land
🇮🇪🤝🇵🇸
Nerf gun go pew pew
Michael Collins and Donald Trump would have never gotten along with each other. Both men shared too much of the same personality characteristics. Michael Collins and Donald Trump...two of the world's great statesmen.
Are you completely retarded?
Don’t ever talk again you have lost all rights to speak after writing such shit
and then they ask why the Irish stand with Palestine
Kara, Omg🙏
