Saw this movie today.slow moving, quiet, powerful with injustice and raw emotions of pain and the fear of community to acknowledge whats on their doorstep. Powerful.
@mb4310 you say that, but some of the American reviews want me to tear my hair out. Completely missing the point thinking it will be more action fared or like the Magdalene laundries.
I just saw this film today at my local cinema. This is the type of film that makes you want to go to the movies. Outstanding! The audience left speechless.
I just went to see it. Everyone was speechless because it ended before there was any resolution and I thought "This is it?" when the screen went blank.
I saw the film today, and found it incredibly powerful and moving: much more so than I expected. Cillian Murphy gave such a restrained but charged performance, and Emily Watson was chilling. Now I’ll read the novel, which has been languishing on my kindle for ages. I thought there was nothing new to say about Magdalen Laundries, but this rips up a part of Irish history with lessons for everyone.
I saw this film yesterday...it is the type of film that stays with you....Murphy, I am sure, will get another Oscar nomination. Watson,, also , as supporting actress
An incredible book that has such a big impact through a small amount of writing. Claire Keegan is so talented and people should definitely read this book before watching the film.
The Magdalene sisters, made in 2002, by Peter Mullan, a Scottish director and actor, left me in a proper perpetual state, so much so I had to buy a book to delve deeper in to the subject. Fair play to the cast of the movie, those ladies truly brought it to life. No doubt Cillian will do a justice of delivering one of many horrific stories that went on behind those doors.
Guess you can't really understand what someone is going through unless you've been through it yourself. Maybe it doesn't necessarily make you more compassionate than someone who hasn't been through it, but it definitely gives you an inside perspective.
He's amazing so I went to the show this week. I had heard of this history, but I wasn't really sure what I was seeing until it ended. I was shocked that it only ended in 1998 and I was a 90s teen. A good reason to keep your daughters locked up and hidden away during their teen years. Well, it's a bit like Sleeping Beauty though you can't predict where the spinning wheels will be found if you catch my drift.

Milking the "bad, evil, church" narrative for all its worth. This film is a story of personal trauma more than anything else. If anything, the nuns saved those girls, after their parents literally threw them out. They didn't have to, but they did.
It’s not that simple. The fledgling Irish state didn’t have the funds needed to support all the social services and entered into a symbiotic relationship with the Catholic Church, which gave the church unprecedented power. Societal and church pressure combined to create a highly repressive, misogynistic society.

Plsss plss read the book before watching. It's such a short novel, otherwise you might not get the full conext unless ur irish.
Agreed - read the book before seeing it ❤
Also agree!
You DO NOT need to read the book. The movie tells it's story beautifully. You will be fine, the story is UNIVERSAL.

Emotive performance from Cillian, id love to see a film about the Irish famine, he'd be perfect ❤
56000 young women affected (probably an underestimate) and, of course, their babies many found buried in mass graves

I had nightmares from that movie
Can’t wait to see this film.
Cannot wait to see this film in the US
Save your money, it was torture with most of the movie having nothing to do with the main point. The trailer is nothing like the movie.
@@elizabethwilliams3813 why would you watch a film trailer before seeing a film like this?
It's worthwhile.
Very worthwhile
What excellent interview questions!
Excellent movie, haunting my thoughts days after!

Want to see this in Australia 🌏
Saw the movie last night and it was fantastic
Small Things Like These lingers with you long after the credits roll, that's for sure.
I can't see it as it's not showing in my area(cinema) but why is that? ❤
I'd love to see Cillian Murphy make a file from the book, "Plentiful Country: The Great Potato Famine and the Making of Irish New York."

It’s just a movie folks !
It's reality. The theocracy still rules/ruins lives.

If that's naive narrative you want to take.. well you are know better than the church
Why did their Parents throw them out? Because of sin in the eyes of the church.

You have really missed the point of this film and should maybe read up on the wider context of what it was depicting
