    I'm surprised this hasn't been mentioned here yet: local production, Timothy Spall as Ian Paisley, and Colm Meaney as Martin McGuinness. The two of them head off on a picaresque journey and thrash out the Northern Ireland Peace Agreement, while Tony Blair tears his hair out. :pac:

    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.

    ―Oscar Wilde predicting Social Media, in The Picture of Dorian Gray

    John Hurt too..
    and Timothy Spall who's been in so much (e.g. Peter Pettigrew in the Harry Potter films) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timothy_Spall_filmography)
    and Catherine McCormack who played Murron in Braveheart..
    and Barry Ward who played James Gralton in Jimmy's Hall..
    and Toby Stephens who was the James Bond villian in Die Another Day..

    That's some cast. Looking at many of them, Game of Thrones looks to be a common factor but then again GOT is filmed up North so that could be it.

    I am a mega fan of Colin Bateman who wrote this and have been watching this unfold over the past 2 years as his "friend" on facebook. I can't wait to see it.

    Pity I will have to wait for a while though as am in Asia. Dammit.

    Has anyone gone to see it yet?

    Saw it today and thought it was brilliant! The majority of the movie was a just a dialogue, sometimes a monologue, but strangely captivating. For reasons only known to themselves, the local cinema shows it only at lunch time. Only a handful of people in the audience.

    Looks like it. The EYE Cinema in Galway shows it.
