In the film about the issue of Northern Ireland, the imprisoned Northern Irish Republican Army leader Bobby Sands led other Northern Irish Republican Army forces to pressure Thatcher through filth demonstrations and hunger strikes in prison, and eventually died on a hunger strike. The film has very distinctive shooting characteristics. The first half of the violent protest, the 17-minute dialogue between Bobby Sands and the priest in the middle, the metaphor of the horse killer all express the personal characteristics of the spiritual and ideal level, and the second half of the hunger strike The shocking shooting of the deteriorating body shows us their firm belief and will. Regardless of whether their political views are right or wrong, Bobby Sands's determination as an independent fighter is worthy of respect. Fasha paid a lot for this film. The last few shots of the hunger strike showed a kind of pathological weight loss, which is admirable for his actor qualities. The film’s strong impact, rhythm and style are very important. It's hard to imagine that it is Steve McQueen's first screen debut, which is impressive.

Father Dominic Moran: I want to know whether your intent is just purely to commit suicide here.
Bobby Sands: You want me to argue about the morality of what I'm about to do and whether it's really suicide or not? For one, you're calling it suicide. I call it murder. And that's just another wee difference between us two. We're both Catholic men, both Republicans. But while you were poaching salmon in beautiful Kilrea, we were being burnt out of our house in Rathcoole. Similar in many ways, Dom, but life and experiences focused our beliefs differently. You understand me?

Bobby Sands: I'm clear of the reasons Dom. I'm clear of all the repercussions. I will act and I will not stand by and do nothing.
