A love divided
Very well-made movie about the notorious boycott case back in the '50s. It's about a Catholic/Protestant marriage and the row over which school the kids get sent to. The problem is that it's the kind of movie that should have been made decades earlier and is too melodramatic. Another problem is that it's more suited to television than the big screen. There's a great scene where they're in a horse-drawn cart and the camera pulls back to show us the scenery. That happy scene outside the office was filmed beside a Dublin library. The kind of movie that's impressively directed but lacks any unique qualities.
