The MatchMaker (1997)
Kiss that Blarny stone.
I absolutely loved this movie. No they did not show the parts of Ireland that have the nasty power plant or the areas that are bombed out. What they show is breathtakingly beautiful. And the accents are not that hard to follow. But if you need more practice...I suggest "Waking Ned Devine, The Very Thought of You,Brassed Off". Three very fine movies
The Wonderful Ice Cream Suit (1998)
I Love This Movie
Again a wonderful ensemble of actors. Ray Bradbury fans will love this movie. The soundtrack is most excellent. Each of the main characters has their own particular charm and failing. Their chaotic search of a better life bring them together in a most unusual way.
Brassed Off (1996)
Most excellent ensemble of actors, great musical score.
I have watched this movie several times. I hope it is issued on DVD soon. The relationships amongst these men remind me of those portrayed in the movie "The Full Monty". The music score is absolutely fantastic. It isn't just marching music. The way they use the hauntingly beautiful Rodrigo's "Aranjuez" to punctuate the scenes of opening negotiations between the union and the mine workers has to be seen and heard to be appreciated.
