SPI Member Nuala O'Connor @SWB_Productions moderates the Meet the Composers panel with @screencomposer2. Fascinating to hear from the composers on their process for screen composition #FleadhForum24 #FilmFair
@BOPictures @ScreenIreland @richpeppiatt @WildCardDistrib @CurzonCinemas @NIScreen @trevorbirney "There was a tendency for Irish filmmakers to make (the films) seem as if they were set anywhere but the more you stay true to the setting...there's a much better chance of resonating instead of making a nowhere film" - Pat Collins #FilmFleadh #FilmFair 🎥💚
Great to hear from two SPI members @WildCardDistrib and Tina O'Reilly about making two very different, but equally powerful Irish films - 'Kneecap' and 'That They May Face the Rising Sun' #FleadhForum24 #FilmFair @SWB_Productions
Lovely to have That They May Face The Rising Sun represented at the @GalwayFilm Fleadh this week! And honoured to be among such fine company as part of the 'Riding the Green Wave from Leitrim to Sundance: New Irish Stories' panel 🇮🇪 🎬 #FilmFleadh #FilmFair
"Pat Collins's film adaptation of John McGahern’s novel is not just a departure into narrative fiction but a progression of the themes he has been exploring in his films for over 30 years" Niall McKay takes an in-depth look at the work & career of Collins. filmireland.net/2024/05/29/att…
That They May Face The Rising Sun was sublime. Packed house - beautiful acting - sounded & looked fantastic. Don’t miss the chance to see it large and loud in the company of cinemagoers and with the phone turned off. It’s special. @brendanjbyrne
"Subtle, sensitive, and dynamically understated throughout, Barry Ward is the fulcrum of this quietly magnificent film experience" A very thoughtful ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ review from @HAWhiteK @Independent_ie 🙏 m.independent.ie/entertainment/…
Just saw ‘That They May Face the Rising Sun’, a gorgeous, deeply affecting adaptation of the wonderful McGahern novel. So well cast and beautifully shot. Standout performances by Lalor Roddy and Seán McGinley. A stunning, captivating beaut of a film that will move you.
That They May Face The Rising Sun 5***** in the print edition of the Financial Times today. Just wonderful !
One of the (many) things I loved about That They May Face The Rising Sun, is how tenderly it holds the connection between people and Ireland's natural landscape. Nature's health, beauty, and wonder, is ultimately our own. Go see this film this weekend! youtube.com/watch?v=sHsLFF…
"A film that unwraps its mysteries slowly, revealing under its quiet surface the human condition writ delicate but deep." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - The Financial Times @FT The new @SWB_Productions co-production - out now in cinemas across Ireland 🎬 ft.com/content/2359fb…
