Following a successful world premiere and fifteen minute standing ovation in at Venice International Film Festival, director Martin McDonagh‘s (Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri & In Bruges) The Banshees of Inisherin is warmly welcomed into Studio 74.
On a small island off Ireland’s coast, life delivers few surprises. While a civil war of increasingly senseless violence rumbles on the mainland, sleepy days on Inisherin are marked by lifelong pals Padraic (Colin Farrell) and Colm’s (Brendan Gleeson) late-afternoon trips to the pub. Until one day, when it doesn’t happen. McDonagh offers an undulating wave of a story, one that moves from hoot-inducing black comedy and a tender ode to filial love, to a film about a fiery rage that’s lost sight of its original purpose. Farrell and Gleeson dazzle throughout. But the film also centres scintillating performances by Barry Keoghan as an inchoate but harmless pest and Kerry Condon as Padraic’s sister, the Island’s sagest resident who longs for something more. As heartbreaking as it is hilarious, The Banshees of Inisherin is arguably the finest work from this major filmmaker.
Full of genuine laughes and banshee-wails of pain throughout, The Banshees of Inisherin reunites director Martin McDonagh and In Bruges stars Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson for a hilarious take on male friendships, bravado and family.
