What a great movie
Obligatory 
Great story about revolution that made me think a lot about what's going on in Palestine, with the IRA hitting military targets and the Brits doing violence against civilians as retaliation. It makes sense that the brother who joined the free state was the one who protected the landlord earlier in the film. He's all like "if we don't defend the free state then the British will come back" and it's like motherfucker you swore an oath to the king! You are the fucking British now
thank you, Mr Connolly
