(Ken Loach/2014/UK)
A tale of
revolutionary ideas in rural Ireland, rejected by the status quo in
the guise of the Church and the consequences for those involved
therein. Unrequited love is thrown into the mix for good measure. I’m
not really sure what this film is trying to convey to be honest.
Overall it’s a bit facetious, dialogue heavy at times and has a
clunky feel good ending, “We’ll remember ya Jimmy!”. Not
Loach’s finest hour by a long shot.
(1.5/5)
