Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 4995098, member: 1414"] [B]In The Land of Saints and Sinners[/B]. Stars Liam Neesom as Finbar Murphy, an assassin for hire in Donegal, Ireland. It’s the 70s and The Troubles roil Northern Ireland. Kerry Condon is brilliant as Doireann McCann and IRA leader who takes her crew to hide in the Donegal town where Finbar lives after a bomb attack goes wrong. Ciaran Hynds is Finbar’s friend and the local Garda. Both served in WWII, despite Irish neutrality. The Director is Clint Eastwood‘s longtime producer and this has some parallels to Unforgiven in particular. Jack Gleason (was Joffrey Baratheon) has a nice role as a younger assassin, and brings the same creepy energy. This is well shot, well acted and has a classic Western redemption tale of the gunslinger defending the town from something worse. Condon is really particularly good, just radiating a cold malice, like a Cobra ready to strike. [/QUOTE]
