1987: The Dead
Marred by its almost BBCish cinematography (one Fred Murphy's responsible), the film about a dinner party, if that's the right term, in early 20th century Dublin, managed to entertain me without exactly blowing my mind. My knowledge on the sociocultural context is pretty poor, though, so it's quite possible that I missed stuff. Favourite scene: The piano instrumental. Favourite character: The drunk. Pretty strong ending. (6)
