We recently watched two films on two successive nights. The first was Michael Collins, the second was The Wind That Shakes the Barley. Both are highly recommended. The latter film is more personal and focussed on the the lives of ordinary Irish during the early 1920s. Little was spared in depicting the brutality that the English inflicted upon the Irish.

Pick them up used from Amazon if you don't have them already.

Give *us* the future, we've had enough of your past. Give us back our country, to live in , to grow in, to love.
