What’s the best Irish film ever?
Dublin People 13 Apr 2013
THIS week we asked our Facebook friends to tell us the name of their favourite Irish film, with some obvious results.

Sarah O’Kelly:
‘Crush Proof’ – it’s a brilliant film.
Conor Donovan:
‘In Bruges’.
Jenny Bell:
‘The Snapper’.
Mark Sparky O’Shea:
‘Agnes Browne’ was a great one and
‘My Left Foot’ gave a feel as to how Dublin was when communities helped each other.
Ciara O’Halloran: Has to be
‘Adam and Paul’.
Julia Mary Keane:
‘The Boys From County Clare’. It was so funny and easy to watch for the whole family. And of course, how could I forget
‘The Commitments’, having grown up in Ballymun.
Paul Mulligan:
‘I Went Down’, one of Brendan Gleeson’s funniest roles!

‘The Snapper’,
‘Accelerator’ and
‘Crush Proof’.

“Do you know what I find fascinating? Dreams, muinteoir.
?

‘The Guard’. Then
‘The Snapper’.

‘Into the West’. Ossie and Tito’s adventures on Tir na Nog.
Zoe McCann:
‘Ryan’s Daughter’.
Monica Fisher:
‘The Snapper’ or
‘The Boxer’.
Chris Denham:
‘Intermission’ cracks me up every time.
‘The Commitments’ and
