Scenario
It spans four tumultuous decades during the Troubles in Northern Ireland
The real Dollar Price was married to Irish actor Stephen Rea for two decades (1983-2003). During that time, Rhea appeared in what is arguably her most famous film in the United States: the 1992 romantic thriller The Crying Game.
It reports on something very difficult
In the film, Rea plays Fergus, a very reluctant and reluctant member of the Irish Republican Army (IRA) – the same organization that Price had been involved with for years. This is a beautiful piece of television.
Dolours and Marion vividly illustrate the old adage “Nature versus nurture”
The period of Irish history and its characters (and therefore real history) are portrayed, warts and all. They were born into a republican activist-volunteer family and became just that.
The undeniable and inescapable truth is that all politics is born of war and that is something the Irish must remember
The so-called legitimate parties in Irish politics are no better & They are definitely no different from Sinn Fein, they have better spin doctors.
