Set on a remote island off the west coast of Ireland, THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN follows lifelong friends Pádraic (Colin Farrell) and Colm (Brendan Gleeson), who find themselves at an impasse when Colm unexpectedly puts an end to their friendship. A stunned Pádraic, aided by his sister Siobhán (Kerry Condon) and troubled young islander Dominic (Barry Keoghan), endeavours to repair the relationship, refusing to take no for an answer. But Pádraic's repeated efforts only strengthen his former friend’s resolve and when Colm delivers a desperate ultimatum, events swiftly escalate, with shocking consequences.

So many scenes stick out for me but the one where Dominic tries to ask Siobhan out is absolutely incredible, so realistic and moving. I really felt for all the characters in this film.
There goes that dream...😔
Thought it was sad but funny the first time, but seeing it again knowing what happens next makes it so much more moving
Unrequited love is a bitch 😢
I though Barry Keoghan's performance stole the show.
@@geoffnelson6756 Yeah, he was great in it. Although, I have to say that Colin Farrel's eyebrows should have got the Oscar nomination, they were spellbinding throughout.
Dominic’s line “There goes that dream” is one of the most heartbreaking moments in modern cinema.
I thought he was absolutely brilliant but Jenny was my favourite.
True
Please someone explain to me why this film is categorized as a comedy rather than a drama, to me it was all very emotive 🥹
I thought there were some hilarious parts. Very heartfelt and complex movie. Loved it.
Considering what happens latter in the film, really makes that scene stand out.
Barry Keoghan's performance was incredible. I went into the film expecting great performances from the other three main leads, but the character of Dominic, wow. I can't express it.
I agree. He was outstanding.
"We just wanted to make the most beautiful irish film we could possibly make"
Well you definitely have Martin 👏👏
Depression and despair in an older man who is despondent that he has left nothing musically creative for the world to remember him by. He takes it out on the person who cares about him the most, the way most depressed people mistakenly do. Such an amazing film. Everyone is so damn sad and lonely, but the movie is beautiful in its darkness.
What you don’t seem to realize is, that having to spend a lot of time in the presence of someone that shallow when you are anything but, can become very annoying over time. It has zero to do with depression, and everything with someone boring the pants off you on a regular basis.
You may be the kind of person that doesn’t mind never going beyond any intelligent conversation, but not everyone is that shallow.
@@kellydalstok8900
It's ambiguous - you could both be correct ?
@@kellydalstok8900 Was it your intention to present yourself as a condescending cow?
No, watch the movie again. The priest specifically asks Colm about his "despair." The word depression was not used in 1923 Ireland - everyone on Inisherin was isolated, sad and lonely. The priest knows that Colm is suffering from depression and loneliness.
@@Matthew-ez4ze Actually Padraic talks about depression twice. Once when Siobhan comments on it at the table and he whispers That’s what I thought, he’s depressed. The least he could do is push it down like the rest of us. Again, when he’s at the pub with Colm. That’s what my sister and I was thinking, he whispers, that you’re just a bit depressed.
This film is a masterpiece. Colin Farrell’s best movie so far. Martin McDonogh’s cast choice was just sublime with Brendan, Barry and Siobhan. Such a nuanced, empathetic, sad and beautifully told story. I hope Martin McDonogh wins best director at the BAFTAs. It’s such a simple but deeply sad and touching story. Cinematography is off the scale beautiful. Acting is achingly authentic. Thank you so much. Aileen.
If anyone is a fan of MCU or Three Billboards from Ebbing, Missouri (another Martin McDonogh masterpiece because all his films are masterpieces imo), Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, Siobhan is played by Kerry Condon, who is the voice of Friday for Tony Stark/Iron Man, the clerk at the advertising company in 3BOEM, and Stacey Ehrmentraut, the widowed stepdaughter of Mike Ehrmentraut. She's a great actress and I hope to see her in more projects soon!
Martin McDonagh is a master storyteller. Deserves every award. 👏
Absolutely agree, I loved this ❤️
Not with spielberg around
@@lilmilontiktok wanna bet?
Won nothing important for In Bruges and that was far superior so I guess he'll get some sympathy votes for this. I did enjoy it but it's about 5th in my list of dark Irish humour films.
Watched The Guard for the umpteenth time yesterday and that's better than Banshee's.
@@lilmilontiktokcry
Barry Keoghan is brilliant.
Honestly hope this wins the Oscar! So incredible!
Ummm Oscars are irrelevant. It won't change anything for this film. It's amazing already and doesn't need any validation from the awards.
@@saloksingh7 yep, it's only political pandering now. Nothing to do with the art of filmmaking. It's almost an insult to win one .
The detail that went into this was something to behold. A beautiful, low - key masterpiece that deserves to be rewatched.
I watched it after it got the Oscar nomination and have watched it thrice already 😂
I watched it for the first time nearly two months ago and couldn't stop thinking about it, and going over it for days and days. But could not bring myself to watch it again until just recently. It's just as gut wrenching and just as beautiful even when I knew what was coming.
This film is, as someone said, like reading a good novel. We’ve also watched it 5 times and it’s like finding another layer to unpeel each time. Amazing that we still double up watching Colm and the priest in the confessional and that the gut punch at the end, on the beach, still moves us so deeply.
This film is so representative of Ireland, then and now. It stays with you after watching it, as it is layered and deep on many levels. It is a timeless masterpiece.
I don’t think it’s a coincidence that ”Inisherin” literally means ”Ireland Island”.
"It stays with you after watching it" yes indeed and how...., but I´m not Irish, I´m an Argentine, explain that
I have been thinking about this movie since I left the cinema and with every minute I recognize it to be better and better. Basically there is no weak scene, no irrelevant line, no boring charachter - everything from writing through casting and acting to filming is pure perfection.
Exactly. It's perfect from beginning to end.
"you can't tell me put my donkey outside when I'm sad..."
Classic
Jenny for a Best Lead Donkey Oscar, like.
The character of Dominic broke my heart.
Mine too. At the first viewing I found him a bit strange, but at the third I would have gladly adopted him to give him the motherly love he so direly had missed - and kill his terrible father. So sad he had to die.
Everyone was brilliant. Gleeson is absolutely incredible, he has so much presence and mastery to him, and he and Farrell together are just amazing. With McDonagh in the mix, they all create total perfection, and there were some amazing additions to this crew, with Condon especially; she was so human and relatable. Absolutely incredible film. Absolutely incredible. Hands down the best film I have ever seen.
THIS 👏
If you ask me, Barry Keoghan should have been nominated for best supporting actor. His performance is just fantastic.
He was!
@@karenreid8015 oh lol. OK thx
He was - and he should win it, too!
@@bubbles7964 welp, there goes that
He was and won it too 😂🥳
I fell in love with this film. Truly poignant storytelling, incredible performances, and beautiful cinematography throughout. It's a rare kind of movie that'll stick with me forever, probably.
Colin Farell deserves Oscar for this role, like.
He’s favourite to get it alright
Just the eyebrows are worthy of an Oscar.
We’re thinking the same, so. 😁
A friend invited me to see this film and i am grateful! It is a masterpiece as others have stated. The acting by every character is sublime…but Colin’s eyebrows are definitely worthy of an Oscar! Barry Keoghan’s Dominic got me each time he was onscreen. Congratulations. This film was what cinema is about, transporting us to another place and time with a sensitively delivered story we can engage with, and also be left pondering over. 🐑🐑🇳🇿🇳🇿NZ
I was going to remark on the eyebrows, but you beat me to it.
Captures the beauty of Inis Mór and Ireland in general so well. Deserves every award it gets.
Definitely deserves an oscar over Fablemans.
This movie is hands down one of the best in the history of cinema. From the acting to the scenery. It blew me away the first time I saw it and it's amazing how there's always something new to unpack whenever I rewatch it, like a nesting doll. It initially seemed like it was a simple (yet quite violent) story of a broken friendship, but it perfectly encapsulates the different tragedies of each of the characters. What I also found interesting was this sort of foreshadowing in the film i.e. (1) when Officer Kearney told Mrs. O'Riordan about a man who committed suicide by drowning himself in the lake, then later on in the movie, he found the dead body of his own son, Dominic, in the lake; (2) the last shot of Colm and Pádraic at the beach with Mrs. McCormick watching them from afar, which seems to suggest that one of them will probably die soon from Pádraic's relentless pursuit of continuing their back-and-forth (given that Mrs. McCormick was the one who told Pádraic about the two deaths coming to Inisherin, it appears she was the metaphorical banshee on the island), and; (3) Dominic's first scene in the film in which he was showing this stick with a hook that he found and he was like, "What would you use this for?", not knowing that Mrs. McCormick would be using that very same stick to pull his floating corpse to shore. Anyway, those are just my observations. Everyone in this film was remarkable, but I'm especially happy for Barry Keoghan starting to get the recognition he deserves. 💚
It’s great to read comments like yours! Nice to have thoughtful conversations. We have watched it 6 times since November and are still peeling the layers! I do disagree with you about the end scene. Colm says he doesn’t think banshees portend but rather observe. What me and mine debate is what kind of relationship do they have now. He says they will reconcile bcuz Padraic says he’ll take care of the dog anytime. I say Padraic makes it pretty clear they’re done. “Some things there’s no movin on from. And I think that’s a good thing.” I don’t see anything that would suggest either of them die. That ending is such a gut punch! Each loses something loved and irretrievable. 😢
@@mgariepy42 Thank you! Yours is an interesting insight as well! :) I agree with you that they won't be reconciling. Pádraic made it pretty clear that there was no going back, he just didn't want to involve the innocent dog. As for the potential death, it's just that I also remember the scene where Colm said he was having (I assume intrusive) thoughts about playing his finished composition on Pádraic's funeral. That and Mrs. McCormick watching them from a distance hinted at me that Pádraic might die (but now that I think about your comment, maybe Colm meant a funeral at a later time, like if Pádraic does die, it's of something else i.e. natural causes and not from their fight). But yes, I hope not as it's already heartbreaking as it is! 😭
@@idkwtffr What almost everybody but a few missed is that in the last meeting between the two at the beach Colm has left no footprints in the sand (while in their first scene at the beach in the beginning of the film there was a most noticable deep row of tracks visible) And there's a very short shot showing his left hand has all it's fingers back - which indicates he's not among the physically living anymore. The Colm Padraic and the viewers see is a - very lively - apparition. Plus in an earlier scene when Padraic is piling wood in the windows of Colm's house there is a short shot from inside the house showing Colm sitting and smoking a cigarette. As the day before in the pub Padraic had announced to Colm he'd burn his house down at exactly two o' clock the next day and wouldn't be looking if he was inside or out, but he should leave the dog outside anyway (that was sitting outside when Padraic arrived at the house), Padraic had to assume that the Colm on the beach was still among the living. But the Banshee, Mrs. McCormack, who was on the scene while the house burned as you mentioned, had grabbed herself a wooden chair from outside which she sat on up on a mountain terrace in the last scene when Padraic walked away from Colm, thus visibly parting the living from the dead. (I must confess that it took me three viewings to put all the clues together, but once you've done that the ending really makes sense.)
@@Wildweib you have just provoked us to watch it again bcuz of your comment! Great catch!
@@mgariepy42 Oh, just saw that I totally forgot to say thank you for your lovely reply on here 2 months ago, sorry...! And of course I'm curious if you've watched The Banshees and the final scenes again and "saw what I've seen"?
I love the "I found this stick with a hook. What do you think it was used for hooking things a stick lengths away?" Line
Love this story, the actors, the director and screenplay. Awesome in every respect. Should win an Oscar.
Boring... Boring.. Crap.. Boring.. S**t
@@victorfeldman3522 don't sign your comment
@@victorfeldman3522 Obviously you don't understand Irish culture or the analogy of the story to the Irish Civil War, a civil war that was engineered by the British who are also responsible for ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, South Asia and various other evils around world.
@@couragethecowardlydog142 Lets keep to the spirit of the thread. McDonagh is very subtle with the metaphor. You don’t have to know the history of Ireland to get the point. Look at the conversation between Pader and Colm and you get the point, made with McDonaghs dark comedy. Pader is excited about going over as an extra hand for executions. He isn’t sure which side is doing them. “I preferred it when we were all together and just killing the English.” And when Padraic and Colm are in the pub. Colm says Yet we remember etc and Padraic yelps, YET, he says, like he’s English! 😂
Please don’t bring politics here.
@@mgariepy42 No, when wrongs have been committed for 800 years you don't shut up about it. You scream it from the highest mountaintop you can climb. Notwithstanding that Ireland was the most devoutly Catholic country in the world, even more so than Italy, it was a religion imposed upon them by the English King Henry II, who with the blessing of Pope Adrian IV invaded Ireland with instructions to Christianize the heathens. The story of St. Patrick is a fairly tail. With the legalization of divorce, abortion and same sex marriage the Irish have poked a finger in the eye of the Catholic church, small recompense for the years of child abuse meted out by Catholic priests. You are familiar with the Magdellan Laundries right and the taking of children from unwed mothers to be put up for adoption. Not nice to talk about such unpleasantries. I only wished that Sein Fein had alligned themselves with the emerging Soviet Union after the Irish Revolution if no other reason than to make the British feel a bit uncomfortable at the idea of having a Soviet ally on their doorstep. The British deserve to feel a bit uncomfortable.
I noticed something that speaks to the attention to detail of the director.
In the scene in the pub when Padraig Sullivan chatises Colm and praises his sister, just before he confronts Colm, the trad group is playing a song. That song is "O'Sullivan's March" which I take to be a march into battle tune. Love it.
Nice catch !
Yes!
Thanks! Another reason why McDonagh is pure genius.
So interesting that Martin says he wants a film you want to watch more than once , I felt this so much about this film .. there are so many layers to it , must see it again
Reading everyone's takes on this movie is just so interesting! I think the beauty of art lies hugely on how it can be interpreted in so many different ways, that's just so beautiful.
For me, I had a simpler interpretation of the characters. I have a cousin who is very dear to me, who lost her boyfriend and her best friend in a span of one year. Lost them as in they became cold and distant and when she inquired why they both said they were too depressed to put any effort into relationships of any kind. My cousin is still so heartbroken to this day. The other day she said to me just how cruel and heartless can someone be to simply decide they don't want a person who has given so much love to them for years.
I feel like in this movie, Colm is a very depressed man, and this made him want to detach himself from people he loves (as depression has done to a lot of people). This abandonment broke Pàdraic so much, it changed something in him. It really showed when Dominic says to him how he used to be nice and now he isn't.. so I feel like heartbreak has changed him into a worse, crueler version of himself.
So I guess what I mean is, rejection makes some people lose faith in love and in kindness; and as for others, like Dominic, they cannot handle cruelness and rejection at all, they'd rather not be around than change anything about themselves to cope.
My thoughts are all over the place I'm sorry lol
It's such a gorgeous film, I've loved every minute of it. It deserves all the Oscars it can get. I wanna see it more and more!
I want Colin's knitted sweater, from the interviews. I think it deserves an Oscar.
Yes
Gorgeous jumper, lovely color!
Apparently the women who knitted it is taking orders.
I love how loud Kerry is she practically roars
Wild? WILD ?
That scene doubled us up! 😂
Hurt to watch, yet watch it again I can't resist. Marvel has thankfully met its match in this film, and without CGI, cheers to all involved!
There is a character arch with Padraig transitioning from a nice happy go lucky person to a bitter unhappy man. He lived a simple life, free of the burden of inner struggle. He's very content with his life on the island and tending to his animals. Colm suffers from some narcissism and secretly resents Padraig's contentment so sets about breaking his innocents. Padraig likes his life and fights to hold onto it. Then suddenly everyone around him is conspiring in their own way to take it away. Which is what the banshee meant when she said a man will die. By the end of the movie Padraig is a different person. Hardened by the experience, he's got a heavy heart and a stoic demeanor. He's become more like Colm, which is why he comments that he likes him more now.
The end of the movie it's sad
I agree this movie is a masterpiece! Colin Farrell is brilliant. His expressions are so sensitive that watching him is a joy even while he’s breaking your heart. Each character is heartbreaking and each performance, Brandon Barry and Siobhan is beautifully acted and powerful even in the soft places. The dialogue is incredibly simple and yet so perfect, so Irish. The story is heartbreakingly sad and simple but also deep and tragic and very funny as well. The cinematography of Ireland is spectacular. This is a rare gem.
Thanks for your continuous love and support Lydia ❤️❤️
Simply masterpiece, I've been telling everyone I know to watch it.
Me too!
Me too! ❤
I loved those beautiful shots by the sea!!! Just drinking a beer with a friend just talking about life. I loved the movie!!!!
Amazing movie, beautifully shot and directed, amazing performances from all the actors. The parallels of the war on the mainland and how they are played out in this story about two men falling out of friendship are so well done. Not a film for everyone, as your mainstream audiences will only see what’s on the surface of this story and find it weird and confusing, for those people, stick to your Superhero movies as they don’t require you to think. This movie is a masterpiece.
Agrée! Popcorn movie fans do not “get it.”
"He doesn't want to be friends anymore."..."What is he? 12?"
🤣🤣🤣
The significance of the film is immense. With a backdrop of the civil-war, it's a very complicated film dealing with the end of a relationship and the reluctance of Pàdraic's acceptance of it. A human trait some of us will recognise.
Unbelievable story by an unbelievable cast. It struck me to the core. Hope it wins an Oscar or two.
21:17 "I like films you can watch repeatedly" YASS! this film is so that!
Great to see the artistry and craft and good work and camaraderie that went on behind the scenes :)
Yes, definitely! I've watched it three times in three weeks already and gladly will for a fourth and maybe a fifth time within the next weeks. There's always something I hadn't seen or grasped before, and I love and understand the characters as if I'd grown up with them. And I never get tired of the magnificent scenic views and the beautiful music. Such an all around masterpiece! Can't be enough "making of"s of it to peek behind the scenes :-).
"Why can't you just leave me alone?" Kinda like how England should've left Ireland alone? Brilliant film on so many levels👏
Someone on tiktok said that Jamaicans probably got their accent from the Irish... I thought it was a gag, but after listening to Barry Keoghan's accent as Dominic, I had to look it up. Turns out it's mostly true :') freaking uncanny. I will probably rewatch this brilliant film for Dom alone, poor fella.
There is an island in the Caribbean called Monserrat. It is the only country outside Ireland that celebrates St Patricks Day as a national holiday.It is known as the Emerald Isle of the Caribbean.
If you think these accents sound close to the Jamaican accent then you would really need to search for the more southern accent such as the Cork and Kerry accent. That is where the Irish who were taken to the Caribbean came from mainly and you will be in little doubt then. :)
@@treborsirrah7916 had no idea! Thanx for this. I always learn something new here!
I really get where Brendan’s character is coming from. I have ended a couple of friendships over the years. They were people that I stopped liking over time as their true character became clear over time. I tend to be too patient and polite with people like that, but after a while it starts messing with my peace of mind because I dread having to spend more time with them. Fortunately they did get the message and never tried getting in tough again.
They were boring and that was their “true character”? You can always avoid people you find do not meet your lofty expectations. Colm is on an island where he can’t avoid his “dull” friend. Padraic depends on Colm to stem his loneliness. There’s the thematic conflict. Can’t we all relate to the breakup of a lifelong relationship? Though probably not as devastating as the abruptness of their split! I think McDonagh makes both men sympathetic. And maybe the thematic current of “niceness” is something he wants us to reflect upon.
One of the best movies I’ve seen this year 🍿⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
And this is why I'm itching to get back to Ireland 🇮🇪 ❤
One of the most magical movies I've ever seen!❣ Just amazing and I wish you all the OSCARS you can get! 🤞
There are no small parts in this picture. Everyone did their job and did it well!
The island and the scenery really did feel like they were an actual character in the film. Absolutely stunning!
Great ...I love This Irish Movie...I Worked At The Lighthouse At Sunset... In Late 70s.. ....Thank You ....Nice To Get A Look Behind The Scenes..Hope Martin And Team Make More Films In Ireland...
this movie is fecking good
It is incredible. I was thinking, it would be a great study for Junior cert or Leaving cert students, Lots of themes and discussions to be explored.
As a huge fan of Withnail and I, this movie absolutely blew me away. I watch it once every couple weeks.
this is amazing...the friendship ..the rejection..breaks my heart and makes me laugh and cry...brilliant!!
Incredible acting duo.
Great doc on a great film. Watched it twice. Need to rewatch it more.
Very captivating, one of the best I’ve seen in maybe years.
A movie that's going to last for generations to come.
I found more to think on after watching it again, including how Paedric's denial turns a pebble into a boulder between the two men. I love that everything happens in a small village where everyone's familiarity with each other resembles a family and in a family, hurt can be amplified. I give this movie 5 out of 5. It's a well-told story with many parallels. I particularly am drawn to the concept of silence and how it becomes the defining difference between the two men. Colm wants silence that feels good and has to be selective with his time in order to experience it. Paedric experiences silence negatively and prefers superficial noise.
I've watched it 5 times now. Martin's movies are big in my house, my mam is a massive fan of his movies too, this one has been a special one for us.
Dominic asking siobhan was she never wild scene is my fave, his delivery of "i have" after she says he's failed on both counts (of not being creepy or stupid) cracks me up 😅 hes so sweetly innocent and funny x
One of the best films last year. Superb
So so grateful that this film exists. I have fallen in love and HARD
Loved this film.
12:45 "There's something a little insular about living on an island..." Yes, that's the word for it. 🙂
Gets better and better each time I watch it like. In fact, I tink I’ll give it another go so.
I feel the same
I love your comment, so.😁
@@mgariepy42 yay! You got it! Was wondering if someone would. 😎👍🏼

The parallels to the Irish civil war are too amazing to be coincidence. Very nicely done. Amazing film.
One of the best film I’ve seen
This was so good that it made half an hour seem like 22 minutes
Colin Farrell crying was something I was not prepared for. Cut me so deep. 🩸😭
Same! I honestly cried with him when I saw that. 🥲
So proud of this film, and I haven't even had a chance to see it! I can hardly wait until I do! God Bless all who are connected to its light and magic! ~ xo
It’s streaming HBOMAX and AppleTV+. Also still running about twice a week on cable HBO channels. And last week it was in theaters again. Loved seeing it on the big screen and having surround sound. The music! The cinematography!
I was literally googling every two days, till the movie came up!
Picture is incredible, it is a good news.
Bad is - now I must wait another 4 years till next.
Watch it a couple times more, there's still something you've missed before. (Three viewings in three weeks and more than ready for the fourth here)
Masterpiece.
Absolutely brilliant Movie!
A Celtic knot is what comes to mind after seeing the film. The protagonists are so good that it allows run time for the supporting cast to shine and complete the knot.
Great cast…….poignant story, deserves to be rewarded..
I just loved this movie. So funny but also so sad. I did not know how to feel.
Loved this film ❤️
My favourite film of 2022.
Escucho uno y otra vez el sound track de esta maravillosa película y me tranquiliza cuando estoy en caos.
never seen anythin as good lads sophie and siobhan daly artists n kerry congrats majical thanks
Brilliant film
Wonderful film
Excellent movie. Well worth watching the great acting. It is a dark comedy. I loved it. #❣️☘️💚☘️
I loved this film.
In Bruges will always be the movie I re-watch, but this is a close second. The acting, screenplay and cinematography are seriously impressive. I think it’s between this movie and ‘Everything, Everywhere, All At Once” for the Best Movie Oscar.
That’s what the pundits are saying. 🤞🙏 Banshees
i think the greatest thing about this movie and the making of it is the fact that Colin and Brendan had a great time making it, they didnt need to isolate from or ignore each other in order to prepare for their roles. thats true acting right there
Well, yes, but there's been great acting by people who've done the exact opposite. Supposedly, Ben Kingsley turned up at the Sexy Beast set in character, to give one example.
McDonagh is the new John Ford. Enough said.
Brilliant authentic movie
it broke my heart, amazing movie
Thanks for your continuous love and support Olga❤️❤️

For how long have you been a fan of mine Caroline??
I've seen it And I have to say I loved it great 👍
Years ago, The Beauty Queen of Leenane in the theater did me in. I was stunned. I have always known Martin McDonagh’s name since then, we all will now.
"Its a delicious cracling experience". I never would have thought of it, but it captures Martin McDonagh's works. There's always an edge. you fall sideways and laugh, then the other way into dark, but he lifts you out.
Oscar winning
For as few years I worked in a pub in a Warwickshire village. The pub had two areas (bars): a saloon (posh bit) and a public bar (basic). In the village was another pub but, two brothers used to come into this one I was at. One occupied the saloon and the other the public bar. Neither one had spoken to the other for almost 20 years but they went into the same pub.
As far as I understand, a few years after I finished working there, they had a reconciliation. I never found out what the initial affair was which caused the rift.
I recalled their story when I watched this. Incredibly well-acted.
What a great little story, thanks for sharing! I could see it in my mind while reading your post :-).
Such a great movie =)
Amazing film....but I can't call it a comedy....although there is comedy in it....the heartbreak and sadness outweighs it a thousand to one.........I was flattened by the end. Oh Jenny...my heart. Amazing cast and the island was a character of incredible beauty.
A brilliant film.
