Negative Positive
Title: Art or propaganda?
Review: Paul Laverty has produced a sensitive script about the relationship between two brothers who end up on different sides of the civil conflict in Ireland during the struggle for independence in the early 1920s. Unfortunately director Ken Loach has taken such an extreme pro-communist position (very few Irish at the time were communists) that the whole story becomes distorted into propaganda. A very sad waste of a good film. Extremely violent.
