the oscar nominations for 2023 are reflecting something that i have known to be true for the last few years. we are truly entering a golden age for Irish cinema.
an cailín ciúin (the quiet girl) and irish language film has been nominated for best international film. this is true amazing. it reflects not only that irish films are getting the recognition that they deserve but also reflects a greater importance being placed on the irish language. this nomination is so important as it is yet another example of the relevancy of the irish language in the 21st century. how can irish possibly be a dead language when movies like an cailín ciúin are being nominated for oscars?
there have been a lot of really good irish language films made in the last few years that haven’t been appreciated properly by irish people and international audiences alike. i recommended arracht or foscad for anyone wanting to watch more irish language films.
and the banshees of inisherin. to see a movie that is so deeply irish up for best picture is a dream. and the thing about this film is that it’s so like a lot of other irish films that i’ve watched in the way that the story is told, the form, and the characters. for me this is nomination isn’t just for the banshees of inisherin, but for all the amazing irish films that have gone mostly unnoticed because people weren’t paying attention.
another thing that i love about this film is that it’s a film about irish people where they’re just people. their irishness isn’t made into a joke, they’re not shown to be alcoholics, or thieves, or any of the other negative stereotypes that have been perpetrated in film and on stage for years. the stage irishman is no more. the landscape is appreciated for its natural beauty, there’s no tacky filter or editing to make it bright green and blue, because as anyone living in ireland knows, this island is overwhelmingly grey.
and what more needs to be said about the actor nominations. irish talent is finally being appreciated, and not just based on how well they could do an american accent. i remember reading an article a few years about saoirse ronan that said she had to perfect that american accent or she would have ended up on fair city for the rest of her career. striking to see how this has changed. i really hope kerry condon gets her oscar, she deserves it.
i used to think if i wanted to work in film i’d have to move to america but things are changing fast and i have to say i think the best of irish film is yet to come.
i’m proud to be irish and i’m so unbelievably happy to see irish talent being recognised at the oscars this year!!!

Rough HB Pencil portrait of early 2000's Cillian. He is quite something... He has such a Renaissance kind of beauty. Literally breathtaking and gender-bending 🥹❤️ I absolutely adore drawing him with this look!

GOLDFISH MEMORY (2003) dir. Elizabeth Gill When Clara sees her boyfriend Tom kissing Isolde, it sets off a chain reaction of romance and heartbreak that goes full circle. Everyone is trying to solve the pressing question of the perfect relationship, and the only thing they all agree on is that love is the one thing we can’t live without. (link in title)
