"I’m a history major. I love history and I love the family values and to see how that whole story unfolded. Literally, if it’s on TV and I just watch it for a second, I’m drawn in immediately. The story is so compelling. I just can’t turn away."

A dark part of history mixed with a fictional revenge story
I had heard this movie was being made and I think the themes in it are very important. Many British people don't know about this dark part of their history and how intertwined their history is with Ireland. The revenge aspect of the film may be fiction, but the setting and historical aspects were very accurate.

I'd urge you to go and see this movie, but be prepared; it is very bleak.
