The Banshees Of Inisherin (Martin McDonagh, October 21,2022) Movie • Page 4

Yes, stop everything you are doing and turn on In Bruges...NOW

 

In Bruge is easily top 5 movie for me, it's such a good time (even though it's dark as fuck)

 

Seeing In Bruges in theatre opening weekend is a top tier moviegoing experience for me.

If you haven’t seen it yet, the theatrical trailer for that movie is so wildly inappropriate to the tone of the actual film. I just remember seeing it at this upscale indie theatre in Chicago and all these 60 year old yuppies were so pissed it wasn’t the film that was advertised. Meanwhile, me and my brother were absolutely in love with every second. I’ll never forget it.

 

Wow, this did not click for me at all, but glad so many are into it

 

This was fine. It is surprising to see the director of something as blunt as Three Billboards show real nuance.

 

rewatched In Bruges last night and while it remains great, I think I might actually prefer Banshees

 

Still time to delete

 

Rewatching this at home was so rewarding -- there are so many subtle little lines and moments you don't pick up on the first time. Just a few off the top of my head:

Right before Siobhan and Dominic's scene by the lake, the banshee is creepily waving Siobhan towards the water -- but at the time we don't know that Dominic's right behind Siobhan, so I realized she's actually waving Dominic towards the water where he'll eventually die.

Padraic repeatedly stops Jenny from sniffing at the box with Colm's finger in it.

Dominic tells Padraic that the two things he hates are "war and soap", seemingly a dumb funny line but devastating when you realize his father likely beats him with bars of soap.

It was much sadder on rewatch as well. My theater was full of that annoying thing where the movie's kind of funny so people don't know what to laugh at and end up laughing throughout scenes that take a turn for the devastating, like Dominic's proposal.

 

Devastation’s pretty funny sometimes

 

Finally got around to this, couldn’t have loved it much more

 

Farrell just won his 2nd career GG for actor in comedy

 

He thanked the Donkey!

 

Best screenplay

 

Best comedy/musical

 

Finally saw this. I don’t think I’ve laughed so much while feeling such dread as I have since “Uncut Gems.” Farrell gave such a great performance on top of two other fantastic turns in 2022. What a talent.

 

Dude better get an Oscar before his career is done

 

Kind of have a lot riding emotionally on him winning for this

 

he has to have one of the best filmographies without a nom of all time

 

Kerry Condon was absolutely tremendous in this, she stole the movie for me

absolutely excellent movie, my only problem with it was my friend speaking over the "there goes that dream" line that literally everyone is raving about lmao. so frustrating

 

Just watched this and wow. Spectacular.

 

Watching this right now. I love it so much, everything about this appeals to me haha

 

My mom hated this and I explained that the entire movie was an allegory for the Irish Civil War

she asked what’s an allegory, I explained what it was, then she said I don’t like that lmao

 

Such an amazing film!!! The four leads all gave such wonderful performances. I need to see Kerry Condon in more things because she was riveting in every scene, and I mean obviously there's nothing new I could say about the dynamic between Farrell and Gleeson. Just phenomenal performances from everybody

 

this was Kerry's movie imo. I've thought about that scene where she absolutely demolishes Colm like twice a day

"great, another silent man on Inisherin"
