  • The Wind That Shakes The Barley is a wonderful film about the brutal English rule of Ireland. However, the film didn't go over very well in England. Oddly, the director just happens to be an Englishman and a very brave and talented one at that.

  • Both my Great Grannies were Irish but I am Cornish we to have been smothered by English culture which has denied us our history as an ancient Celtic Nation I am ashamed of what the English did to Ireland and inspired by men like Michael Collins... oh that he had lived.

    After so many years the English Queen took the brave step of expressing what I think is genuine regret for what happened... its a start in repairing the suffering and hurt that has occured over the centuries we can but hope.

  • Lovely. Just lovely. A heart-wrenching lament. I get so nostalgic listening to this.

  • @orbcon That never happened.

  • there is enough in our great history to keep us singing and watching in movies and listening to stories; reading books to keep us going for centuries.

  • @jimmyratz

    Yes KEN LOACH is a great film and television director; there is no excplicit script, the actors doing a lot of improvisation and free playing.

    There also other wonderful films with topics of freedom and resistance like "Land & Freedom" about the spanish civil war against Franco.

    So up the Rebels!

  • great song , but what is up with those two first pictures? - kind of ruins the mood and feel .love the song and movie - but devil eyes saying 'shh' and red halo guy who looks like he just went fishing or started a campfire for the first time - post before song or not at all.. - ruins the mood .

  • i genuinely cried listening to this song..... BEAUTIFUL

  • Killarm!!

  • @jimmyratz: Loach was really plastered for this film back home!! Sure the IRA killed people, RIC officers, Tans, Protestant informers, but did you ever hear of them ripping lad's nails out or using torture? No, just a good, honest bullet.

  • @jimmyratz Aye, Good fillum, not long enough either but a more condensed version of Rebel Heart, which showed more about the Croke Park massacre and the elimination of the "Cairo Gang" for instance.
