OMAGH (2004) - ♦♦♦

Directed by - Pete Travis

Written by - Paul Greengrass, Guy Hibbert

Starring - Gerald McSorley, Michéle Forbes, Brenda Fricker

 

"Irish telefilm drama following the tale of a man who, after losing his 21 year old son in an IRA bombing in a small market town Omagh, becomes the spokesman for the families of such victims who are often sidelined by indifference. A film marked by the unmistakable style of Greengrass, who wrote and produced the film. The subject drags a little but the film is still impressive for its realistic approach."
