Title: "The Troubles" in a Nutshell
Review: The Wind That Shakes the Barley is an outstanding nutshell review of "The Troubles" which plagued Ireland during the waning days of British colonialism. The story is a poignant expose of British cruelty in its attempt to subjugate the Irish people. However, the film is equally poignant in its examination of the internal strife between two brothers, both patriots in their own right, who share a dream of Irish independence, but each choosing divergent paths, directing them on a collision course with destiny. The movie is both disturbing and endearing, and leaves the viewer with a better understanding of the true price of freedom.
