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’.

‘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 Snapper’.

Zoe McCann:
‘Ryan’s Daughter’.
Monica Fisher:
‘The Snapper’ or
‘The Boxer’.
Chris Denham:
‘Intermission’ cracks me up every time.
‘The Commitments’ and
