Happy Neil Jordan to you!
This week we bring you a filim that Keith remembers watching at some point and the rest is conjecture.
A movie based on a novel inspired by a real life mukduk, a possible anti-Boomer nostalgia piece, a impressionistic allegorical rumination on Ireland in the 1960s - all or none of this and more, it's 1997's The Butcher Boy.
