Parody of the Birds set in Ireland.

Meredith Sanders es una triste y solitaria escritora que regresa a su ciudad natal en Inglaterra por primera vez desde que tenía 6 años y fue adoptada por una familia americana que se la llevó a los Estados Unidos. Allí, decide buscar la tumba de su madre biológica y, para su sorpresa, descubre que sigue viva. Entonces, decide buscarla. Telefilme basado en una novela de la autora de best sellers de corte romántico, Barbara Taylor Bradford, y que no hay que confundir con el thriller de idéntico título que protagonizó Patrick Swayze. Protagonizan Melissa Gilbert, la inolvidable Laura Ingalls de "La casa de la pradera" y la veterana actriz británica, Jean Simmons ("Ellos y ellas").

Tras salir de la cárcel, a la que fue a parar por falsificar la contabilidad de un gángster, Poole (John Hurt) tiene que ocultarse. Encuentra refugio en Dublín, en la pensión de una mujer posesiva y de su tímida hija Alice (Brenda Blethyn). A Poole le apasionan los trenes eléctricos, especialmente el Orient Express. Pronto Alice queda prendada del huésped y de su colección de trenes, con los que juegan para evadirse de la realidad. A la madre no le gusta esa relación, y por si fuera poco a la pareja comienza a ser perseguida por los sicarios del gángster. (FILMAFFINITY)

Fresh out of prison, Git rescues a former best friend (now living with Git's girlfriend) from a beating at the hands of loan sharks. He's now in trouble with the mob boss, Tom French, who sends Git to Cork with another debtor, Bunny Kelly, to find a guy named Frank Grogan, and take him to a man with a friendly face at a shack across a bog. It's a tougher assignment than it seems: Git's a novice, Bunny's prone to rash acts, Frank doesn't want to be found (and once he's found, he has no money), and maybe Tom's planning to murder Frank, which puts Git in a moral dilemma. Then, there's the long-ago disappearance of Sonny Mulligan. What's a decent and stand-up lad to do?

Grania did something 15 years ago that brought her great happiness but also great pain. The events of that day have been a heavy secret to bear that, if discovered, would devastate those closest to her.

Produced for Scottish television, Venus Peter was financed by the Orkney Islands Council. The title character is transformed into a "sea child" when he is baptized with salt water. Though his family tries hard to accustom him to life on land, Peter (Gordon R. Strachan) yearns to go to sea -- or, at the very least, to escape his cloistered community. He finds a kindred spirit in Princess Paloma (Juliet Cadzow), the village "looney," who, alas, is eventually carted away to an institution. Briefly fascinated by poetry and music, thanks to his lovely teacher Miss Balsibie (Sinead Cusack), Peter is disillusioned when he finds his teacher in the arms of her lover (and out of her clothing). The final blow to Peter's idealism comes when his grandfather's ship is repossessed. Despite the bleakness of his surroundings and his seemingly dead-end existence, however, Peter never completely lets go of his dreams, and the film ends on a positive note.

When a small Irish town is terrorized by a corrupt business syndicate, a lone hero wages an all out war.

Malachy: "Who do you kidnap? You can't touch children, women, no sons of Irish mothers. What's left?" When Frankie is released from Portlaoise Prison, his old comrades are expecting some action. He hits on a plan for raising £2 million, but his plan goes wrong.

Period drama. A woman living in Dublin in the late 1930's relieves her humdrum existence with fantasies that her newly-moustachioed husband is her screen idol, Clark Gable.

El saxofonista Danny es testigo del asesinato de su gerente y una muchacha sordomuda. Es interrogado por la policía, pero él sólo recuerda los zapatos ortopédicos del líder de los asesinos. Entonces comienzará su búsqueda para vengarla. “Danny Boy”, titulado de origen “Ángel”, fue su primer largometraje en su Irlanda natal, y plantea una turbia historia que entremezcla con sabiduría los elementos característicos de los policíacos y las particularidades de la República de Irlanda, el Ulster y el grupo terrorista IRA. Con todos esos elementos, Jordan esbozó un retrato duro, violento y a la vez lírico de la realidad irlandesa, una realidad enmarcada en la locura cotidiana de una guerra civil no declarada, no terminada, en una atmósfera espectral apreciablemente conseguida.
