latest. A collection of clichés about Ireland, it has a caricature ì
performance by Albert Finney as the bluff, emotionally repressed Irish ì
patriarch, and too much peat, bog, potatoes in the backyard and kitchen sink ì
drama forits own good." DFA ** The Star March 13, 1996
"A rites of passage story about the love between a young boy and girl, but ì
also an often delightful look at life in a Irish village. There's a wealth of ì
happiness and tragedy and finely observed small happenings woven into the ì
narrative. Politics and religion lurk in the young boy's life. Nice balance ì
and major story telling from a fine script. Excellent acting from Albert ì
Finney and newcomer Matt Keeslar." Garth Verdal **** Argus March 23, 1966
