I've heard this is really good, but if I bring herself to see it will I be bored senseless?

I was fairly bored by it, it is a class film though, not enough guns and shit

 

[chris d]

it is brilliant.

 

[Jim Daniels]

Best thing I've seen this year, even though the cinema was full of ladies aged 50+, laughing and weeping.

It's really good.. seemed to be a fairly narrow view of women who live in the midlands though.. it just seemed odd that everyone in it was white, middle class, and totally Irish.. extremely conservative.. I'm not sure how I liked it.

I agree, nowhere near enough guns and shit

It's made by a white middle class totally irish woman from the midlands so is it ?

Hah?

I checked. It's not. Hope that clears it up for you.

 

[D0njo]

For some reason things are now less clear, if that could possibly be imagined.

I loved it. Made me laugh and cry...despite not wanting to do the latter.

 

[Moods For Mallards]

Enjoyed it a lot.
Agree that nearly everyone had a nice gaff, except one of the younger women near the start.

Well, it's not like they shot the whole house. Most scenes were shot in either the kitchen or living room. When people update their homes they usually do it on one of those rooms since people will seem them. Not all were 'nice'. All were cleaned but anyone would clean if someone was filming. That said, the filmmaker probably filmed the women who agreeed to invite them into their homes. I don't know if many 'poorer' people would want strangers to see their home. I don't necessarily think it was a deliberate choice of the film maker rather a case of what was available. The message would have been the same despite having lots of money or no money, imho.

No, he's a white middle class man from the midlands.

I liked it, some bits were hilarious, some really sad. The décor in the houses seemed atrocious for the most part but I think that might be just how the camera depicts a normal house. I would have liked to have seen more of a variety of women but I thought in general it worked very well. I'd rater like to see similarly shot films about different people here or abroad.

If you haven't already seen it I strongly recommend the Irish Documentary "Colony" It's about bees so it's probably got nothing to do with this thread except that there seems t be a generation of Irish documentary film makers who are really producing fine work. "Pyjama girls" is out soon too.

 

[nooleen]

i'll sing the song of the colllllllllllllllllllllloneeeeeeeeeee, how many yeeee-orrs and sure still we're just bees
and your mother cries
and yeww ask god whyyyyyyyyyyy

 

[Scientician 0.8]

Ha, yeah I thought that film was related to the song. Seriously though, go see His and Hers. It's (as Tony the Tiger once said) grrrreat.

 

[sealed human]

I thought this was a thread for that new BBC3 comedy, Him & Her, is that a British spin off?
