Favorite Irish movie

The Commitments!

Nearly 35 years later and that movie is still laugh-out-loud funny.

 
As an aside, not a movie - but my wife has watched "Derry Girls" about a dozen times. It actually is pretty funny at times.
 
What is classified as an Irish film? “In Bruges” takes place in Bruges, Belgium but the story is centered around 2 Irish hitmen hiding out there.

Reactions: schuele
Waking Ned Devine: Absolutely hilarious.
The Matchmaker: Very funny romantic comedy
The Field starring Richard Harris and Tom Berringer. Dark movie with excellent acting and scenery.
 
Watching Braveheart right now. It's not exactly Irish, but the Irish play a part.

Gods and Generals is next - to honor the Irish brigade.

I have Scottish and Polish blood. Can't blame me for thumbing the nose. :p

The brutal truth is that army recruiters hung out at ship dock. They waited until Irish men fleeing famine arrived. Once they got to the US, the army said "Cool! Now go fight for your country."
