Plot
Spanning four tumultuous decades during The Troubles in Northern Ireland
The real Dolours Price was married for two decades (1983-2003) to the Irish actor Stephen Rea. During that period, Rea appeared in the movie for which he is arguably best-known in the United States: the 1992 romantic thriller The Crying Game.
This is possibly the best piece of media I have ever seen!
In that film, Rea plays Fergus, an extremely reluctant and ambivalent member of the Irish Republican Army (IRA)–the same organization that Price was involved with for many years.. It is a masterpiece of storytelling and directing with the character development superbly crafted and depicted.
I would give this six stars if I could
Growing up in Northern Ireland during the 'Troubles' I can testify that the imagery, brutality and pain are all very real. The acting is excellent and the director should be given full credit for turning an incredible story book into a cinematic masterpiece!
It really is a must see!
It ranks with Breaking Bad and The Shawshank Redemption.It brought me to tears, several times and at its conclusion I had to leave my house around midnight and drive around the city, just to wind down from its emotional impact. There's a whole lot to love about Hulu's streaming offerings this month — get excited for brand-new series premieres and film favorites to watch at home.
