*sings* Quantum of Solace, what the fuck does that mean?
It's interesting how many British directors (eh two) are making films on Irish history/the broader Troubles of late. Is it just budget or are Irish filmmakers not enough removed from events to have a decent filmic perspective on them?
I'd reckon....maybe, that there's an awful lot of British who really don't know fuck all about Northern Ireland, whereas us 26 counties people would have a slightly better idea of what happened and why. Only a slightly better idea mind, but a better idea none the less. So a film like this stirs a lot of controversy in the UK between the pinkiest pinko's at one extreme, and generally ignorant cunts on the other. That sort of controversy puts bums on seats.
I can't wait to see this.
That Cox fella is a bit dumb. He should read a book or something.
