War of the Buttons Part 1

[celticlofts]

It was one of the very few times I ever saw film critic Barry Norman smile giving a movie review .. Evidently he loved it.

[lukeysuperfly]

Si si chiama la guerra dei bottoni del 1993:) dovrebbe esserci anche la versione italiana

[ralezvezdas]

greeting from Serbia, irish bro!

[StickWarrior]

Is it just me, or does this movie sound weird?

[DEATHM4SK]

The filming in the beginning is well done.

[bibilovedance1]

Oh is very beautifuuuul and fuuun!!Is there the italian version??EHM,I'M SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH,BUT I'M ITALIAN AND I DON'T SPEAK VERY WELL THIS LANGUAGE.

At 5:04 and from 5:26-5:54, was Gorilla really going to drop Little Con into the river? If he did, wouldn't he have gotten arrested for dropping Little Con into the river which would kill Little Con if the water was shallow?  Of course, the Ballydowse post man was there to call the police if Gorilla dropped Little Con.

[14deathbychocolate14]

legend movie it soooooooooooooooooooooooo funny

[kphobbit]

Let's all just pay attention to the bloody fantastic music written by the incredibly talented Rachel Portman. And then how good the film is.

[merryprankster60]

[chamboubou19]

@chamboubou19 PS: I had the irish movie in french, it was one of my favorite movie when I was little ^^

[TheNewEmphinix]

When the narrator says: Typical of boys. All I could think is: "Hey, girls fight a lot too. Especially over a boy or some other stupid thing"

[seanalexanderdurand]

@TheNewEmphinix well seeing as a girl said it, the opinion was a tad biased wouldn't you say? ;P

[Cobonline]

"toss-pot?"--means, a piss pot people used before indoor plumbing, when people needed to pee in the middle of the night, they used a pot or a bowl that was sometimes kept under a bed, especially alot of the rich..then it was tossed out in the morning, usually by servants

[yvonnebawn1]

Un día me encontré a un niño rematadamente tonto que se llamaba Gonzalo. Me chinchaba todo el rato, hasta que se me acabó la paciencia y lo maté. ¡Jajajajaja! Vaya cretinos. Os habéis creído la historia del niño. No, en realidad, le corté las piernas y ya está y destruí el mundo. Solo eso, ¿a que es poquito? Y pensar que me han puesto una multa de 1500... ¡Es que la gente ya no tiene vergüenza hoy en día!

[artesthiago]

Había una ves un niño muy tonto que se llamaba Simon. Se murió en un tsunami en Japón. Le ayudaron a salir del agua, pero como Simon iba en moto, vio como su vieja Scuther se hundía, así que se volvió a tirar al agua a rescatarla, pero, se ahogó. EL MÁS TONTO DEL MUNDO.

[brigitgoddess]

So nice that you have shared this as it is unavailable on DVD and the tapes are hard to come by.

[Peggyboy]

@brigitgoddess You can buy from amazon.

[KillingMachine9000]

3:13 shell?

[Britt44100]

This is good, one of the rare movies, it seems like, thats just about regular fun kids stuff. Wish my childhood had been that kind of fun. --What are these kids doing now, it seems like they left the acting part of show business at least if not the whole business.

[iris22d]

Bought this on DVD in Golden Discs in Cork (wilton store), IRE. Epic film one of my favourites for all time. It was only ten euro. Ask at your local dvd stores. They might be able to order it for you!!

[FroFTW85]

OMFG finally i figured out what this movie was called. i watched part of it several ears ago but could never recall what the name was. good thing its on here so i don't have to try and dl it.

[coreylawd]

[XxFireSlayxX]

[coiscarraig1234]

[christoir246]

I miss old ireland,why did the fuckin celtic tiger have to come and change us and our country.

[amunraization]

@christoir246 Yeah its changed us.Now our country is so money hungry that we can be brainwashed into anything,including the change of a thousand generations in just one.There are so many non Irish next to us now its not ole eire anymore. Maybe one day but not until we stop the slumber and realize Ireland is not for them.They have land elsewhere and everyone should know this but are so pc about this issue that they have no chance of standing up for the Irish country.

[Niarmiu]

esta es del 1993 otra versión si es antigua es de los 60

[MrChriskirkpatrick]

I remember watching this when i was in elementary school, and we started huge fights with sticks and rocks. It was a blast!

[amunraization]

The war of our people is also on look its genocide.

[Niarmiu]

Me encanta además se ve muy bien no como otros vídeos de esta misma película que no son muy buenos... Es buenísima esta película la habré visto por lo menos unas 50 veces... ¡Es buenísima!

[SockMonkey007]

[BeastoftheBeasts]

whats this movie about

[Iwillcrushyou0208]

@BeastoftheBeasts watch it

[afriendofbean]

The movie is about two groups of kids who live in two different villages and each group of kids would fight everyday after school and if one kid caught another kid from the other group, the kid would lose his/her buttons, shoelaces, ties, and belts for one reason is to get them in trouble by their parents, and the other reason is so they can get money from that stuff by selling them.

[TheZochor]

It's actually a remake from a french movie "La guerre des boutons" released in 1962, adapted itself from the book of the same name, by Louis Pergaud, 1912.

You can watch the original movie here (but it's in french of course):

For those who were interested :-D (I'm sure you're :-p )

[sw0rd0fadvers1ty]

Awesome movie. So lame that I can't find it on Netflix. I guess I'll have to buy it.

[namerlis]

[calciumkid85]

Why "Shell" logo being displayed in the scene? When the story actually is set?

Anyway, however that still seems "inept", don't you guys think?

Anyway, a heart-warming, uplifting and wonderful picture indeed!

Geronimo is totally crushing on Fergus. It's so cute. Just pay attention to the way he looks at Fergus and he's ALWAYS staring at him. Come on Geronimo, admit it. You want to hug him you want to kiss him you want to love him. Geronimo really wants to take off Fergus's buttons. He he he he
