An Irishman's Choice

Such a good movie, I didn't expect so few movie reviews, I couldn't help but complain for the dead Irish here. Think of the glory of the empire on which the sun never sets. The queen's colonies are all over the world, but behind this glory are the blood and tears of the colonists. Dickens once said: It was the best of times and the worst of times. Everyone that the male protagonist kills deserves to die. Because they just faithfully implemented the queen's system, tyranny is fiercer than tigers! In addition to the once-in-a-hundred-year natural disaster, if you want to live, you must either learn to swallow your voice, or even give up your dignity, or go to the United States to find your own freedom. Like the male protagonist who chooses to seek revenge, the only thing he goes for is self-destruction. Although he can't change anything, a single spark can start a prairie prairie. Life is precious, and love is more expensive. If it is freedom, both can be thrown away.

    I think the character who took the initiative to come out as an interpreter and joked about belittling the Irish to please the great British landowner, but in the end he couldn't help but say "If you put the fine English maiden in the Irish cabin..." The character is very Okay.

    The coloring is overdone, and the soundtrack is simple and crude. And if you are not careful, the background of famine and bad government gradually becomes invalid and becomes a chivalrous story.
