Ni raibh an t-adh len cailin Éireannach, Dolores Mary Eileen O’Riordan, ag Oscars na bliana seo. Ba mhaith linn comhghairdeas a ghabháil lei ar son a bheith ainmnithe in aon chor agus bi cinte go mbeidh si ar an scailean mor airis go luatha.

Well it’s that time of year again when turkeys need to watch their backs and when we are inundated with ‘Best Of [enter year]’ polls. Not least of these polls is BBC’s Film 2006 film of the year poll. The Wind That Shakes the Barley was the stand out film for me this year and has been short listed for film of the year on Film 2006. So if you haven’t already, vote for TWTSTB here.

It’s people seen from above.

From the sky.

See, these are people walking.

That’s a person lying down.

And that’s a person standing up
next to a person lying down.

This is me…

and you…

and everyone we know.
