These years saw riots and beatings, and unjust actions on both parts of the spectrum, but amidst all of this mayhem, a family is trying to live their lives as best they can. The shortage of work and the violence made for an uncertain time for the residents of Ireland, and in particular, Belfast, the city at the heart of the uncertainty.\n\nThis movie stars Ciar\xe1n Hinds, and Judy Dench, the older generation in the family, and Jamie Dornan and Caitr\xedona Balfe, as the younger generation caught in the midst of trying to keep their family together with all the trouble nipping at their heels, and finally, the main star of the movie, and the actor that steals the show, Jude Hill, as the child of the family. In fact, they say that the character of Buddy, whom Jude Hill portrays, is a diminutive version of Kenneth Branagh, giving us a glimpse into Branagh\u2019s childhood amidst all the strife and uncertainty.\n\nWatch and listen to Victor\u2019s review of television shows, and movies that are released with description for the blind, and he lets you know if the feature is a grand watch, or something that should be left in the discount bin at your local video store.
