Do you know any movies/Tv commercials stuffed with slang words?

Mark06

Hello folks I study English in Poznan, Poland and I'm writing my master thesis about the topic I consciously picked because of my personal interests namely Irish slang and insults/swearings. One of the chapters in my thesis is about application of Irish slang in literature, movies and commercials. I somehow cope with literature examples but cannot handle with movies and TV/newspaper commercials. That's why I'm directing my question to you guys as proud descendants of Irish heritage. I'd like to ask you if you could give me some examples of Irish movies stuffed with Irish slang words/insults and commercials that can be clearly used as examples as I want to carry out analysis of two/three movies and commercials. Moreover, if you could suggest me some written works describing that topics I would be thankful. Kind regards, Mark

Prick!

Father Ted maybe?

For Dublin slang, look at the commitments, the snapper, the van (they're adapted from novels by roddy Doyle if you're interested), and also intermission, starring Colin Farrell. They all feature the more working class Dublin accent, but they're also great movies.

I went down and The Guard are based more in the country and Man about dog for the north. Father Ted as above always good.
