Two things:
First thing. I love Ireland.
My family is from there, I've been
going there for decades and I've traveled
extensively in every Province and County.
I love their music, literature, history and culture.
"Banshees of Inisherin" is set on a (fictitious)
island off the West Coast of Ireland in 1923.
The setting is realistic, the scenery is beautiful
and Brendan Gleeson and Colin Farrell are both
excellent actors.
Second thing: This is one of the dumbest plot lines
I've ever seen! Silly, idiotic and ridiculous. I sat through
it to the end but you'd have to pay me to watch it again!
Now in all fairness, the movie won several artistic awards
and I freely admit I ain't a very artistic guy. Possibly
Mr. Pig and his artsy-fartsy friends found something in this
film that escapes me. Entirely possible - but you be the judge.
