Circle of Friends (1995) - PART 8

"Circle of Friends", set in 1950's Ireland, centers around Benny and Eve as they enter student life at University College, Dublin. Here Benny and Eve re-unite with their childhood friend Nan Mahon, the 'college belle'. They also encounter the handsome and charming Jack Foley, whom Benny quickly falls for.

This movie is one my old favorites, and Minnie Driver's film debut performance in this film is phenomenal. Check out the book by Maeve Binchy; though I have not read the original source, I heard that it is very well-written and less fairytale-like than this one. The DVD of "Circle of Friends" has a widescreen-ish format so if you want to watch the film in better quality, buy the DVD. Otherwise, I hope you enjoyed watching this on YouTube!

Nan is so manipulative. She should have just taken responsibility for her actions instead of dragging Jack into it and hurting Bernadette.

Sleeping around without protection is bound to lead to pregnancy.

eve is the most beautiful woman ever, I wish i was irish!

I understand nan's situation, i hate the way people had to marry because of pregnancy. But what an awful thing to do, poor Benny was too soft :(

In Nan you have the perfect example of why women are seen as evil seducers. Eve who tricked Adam and got us all tossed out of paradise. She won't have an abortion but sees lying and ruining 2 other people's lives as not a sin. I see that as more immoral especially as it was wilfully premeditated. I'd send her straight to hell, no redemption.

[channelvision98]

I am not cutting jack slack, eve is the only one with any sense. And nan started this when she went looking to marry that man. Even though both men are idiots, she is a bitch for manipulating the situations and helping everyone including herself get screwed.
