    IMDB also mentions Ireland, and it probably has to do with Little Bird being one of the production companies involved. According to IMDB they has a hand in many local productions too.

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    We're well known for claiming movies as being Irish when they're not e.g. in Bruges and Hunger.

    In fairness about In Bruges, McDonagh plays up his Irish connection for his plays and his material focuses primarily on Ireland and Irish characters rather than British (being British Born with Irish parents). It's easy to see how the confusion can happen.

    And OP I wouldn't trust Wikipedia about anything..
