Hell, I recall getting pissed off when they made us read Swift's "Irish Proposal" in school here in the states. My teacher thought it was funny that I was getting upset because "you just don't understand satire", and I told her flat out "No, it's because Swift was being a complete bastard, and simply taking the chance to shit all over the Irish the same way that the British Parliament had been doing for centuries."
Needless to say, I sort of got an F on that section. lol
This is a topic that I've studied a bit more than your basic American that isn't a history major, because my grandparents all had different points of view on the issues, and I tried to look into them on my own.
But that's what I really like about the movie Michael Collins. It's presented in such a way that you have to think about it for a second or two. Did he settle for peace, or did he not continue fighting for the Republic that he wanted? That's an interesting conflict for a character to take on while trying to obtain a freedom of some form. Do you take the peace that's available to build on, or do you hold out for what you want regardless of the price?
Personally, I think that the Free State treaty was a bit of a shafting that screwed over an entire country. Yet, even I will have to say that before you can walk, you have to crawl. And the Free State treaty would allow Ireland to be able to crawl on it's own.
Now, not to get into ALL the political issues regarding the Free State Treaty, the IRA, the Troubles and all the issues regarding world-wide recognition of Ireland as it's own Nation able to govern itself. What I never really understood was the hard-nosed approach of the British over this one. I mean, USA, Australia, India, and other countries had been able to "liberate" themselves from the British Empire, what was the issue with denying Ireland the same thing that other countries had gotten?
i get that a lot
lol
Despite what some might say about the Polar Express, I LOVED it.
The vibrant colors and design, the spine-chilling musical score and the sometimes dark storyline. Just an awesome movie!
And if you ever see Love Actually on USA, give that a chance.
Other good ones are Elf, Family Stone and Fred Clause wasn't half bad.
