Momentum
A strangely and unhappily compelling film from the pen over the wildly over-rated Bernard MacLaverty. The script piles improbability on improbability but, given that its premise is so unlikely, perhaps that is the point, a kind of coincidental momentum of the poor and the bad.Helen Mirren doesn’t fare too well as an RUC widow – there are many Irish actresses who could have suited and played this role much more convincingly. John Lynch is fine, looks the part, capturing something of the long-haired, unwashed aesthetic of the hunger-strikers of the time. The best performance is easily by Donal McCann as Lynch’s Da, greasily working up a sweat at the local slaughterhouse. Ray McAnally is wasted in a small part.
I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone, but it’s an interesting addition to the Troubles archive. Some fine photography and backdrops go a long way towards salvaging a rotten script.
