Dear interwebs, it looks like the luck of my theatre/cinema classes is finally starting to kick in over here in Eire because I went to see the new Irish film Perrier’s Bounty tonight and I think I fell a little bit in love.
Written by Mark O’Rowe (Intermission, Terminus, Howie the Rookie), Perrier’s Bounty is basically the perfect combination of profanity, violence, humor, family, love, and Irish. It’s basically what would happen if Quentin Tarantino, Neil Jordan, and Steven Soderbergh had a love child that looked like Cillian Murphy. O’Rowe actually came and spoke to my theatre class just the other week, and I have to say that this script came as a shock to me -- it was incredible in a sheerly entertaining way: witty, vulgar, realistic.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t come out in the states until the middle of May, so you folks have to wait for the joy. But have no fear, I will definitely go see it again!

AND Cillian Murphy is a bit of an alright. I’m just saying.
