He was treated with awful prejudice for been Irish when he moved to England as a young man, he took all of what he endured and what his fathers and their fathers endured and poured it in to that scene it is so powerful, it is from beginning to end the most profound piece of acting there ever was in my opinion.
'Famine' is deliberately used to give a 'Blameless' angle to it, create an impression of a natural disaster, like a biblical flooding, or a whole year of freezing temperatures, which caused the ruination of all crops, not just the potato. The true term, 'Starvation' is never used as they know questions would be then asked, but why did the people starve? What caused it? They starved because British soldiers at gunpoint, took away much of the food that wasn't effected and shipped it abroad. It was attempted genocide of the Irish people, for our lands, driven by the ususal suspects of hate and greed. And you're so right, it's a story that needs to be told, truthfully and completely. I haven't given up hope that Mel Gibson will answer the call and make it!
@@lukelocks9083 That is a story that has to be properly and honestly told in its entirety.There is a famine pot on our family farm on the Kells road in Ireland ,they use it as a water butt for a spring . When I was told the history behind it I felt sick.The Irish people were dispossessed and Murdered by the British . Listen to the national anthem at the rugby . They are the words of a people that will never be broken again .
So we do realise that Bull is not a hero right? He represents the reactionary elements - the lower bourgeois in Irish society against the wealthier bourgeois. He's the personification of Irish backwardness after the civil war period as capitalist Ireland took its place within a globalised capitalist system. He and his family are literally brutalised by this situation. Bull is violent individualism and reaction, not national solidarity as was represented, by say, Jim Larkin and the Irish working class.
@@JamesFlemingIreland Thank God the small farmers were not massacred as "Kulaks"! Connolly and Larkin knew they were allies against the Gombeens and the Squireens. They´ll be massacred soon enough by the Robber Barons that have bought out the "New" Left. Where, o where, is that gallant man!
@@johndanielharold3633we are being replaced, and those involved in the replacement are changing the demographics of Ireland to the extent that the Irish could become a minority in their own homeland within the next 30 or so years.....😢
@theadizo we had our own civilization and culture before the english came. the english presence resulted in over 800 years of bloodshed, rape and murder. The effects of anti catholic laws were still present in the north up to the good friday agreement in 1998. the english in fact did little to develop our country outside of Dublin and Belfast, we only became a fully industrialised nation after WWII. we were merely a colony whose resources and riches were sent back to England.
That’s what makes it so Irish the tragic ending they only ever knew how to suffer like he said he drove out the English and they never forgot, the bull like so many of his generation carried so much trauma & dealt with it internally they were so traumatized by oppression & hardships of life in Ireland at that time the he Sums up so many like him and so many with the exact same mind set & then passing it down to the next generation unknowingly. Such an unreal actor to bring a character like that to Life the way he did, no doubt that is exactly how men were at that time in that place, nobody else could have done the bill the way he did.
On the other hand, pathetic characters who let go too easily never have plays written about them. Enjoy your gay little office job and your overpriced apartment. I still have my field. Yours, The Bull.
Richard Harris was supposed to play the role of the priest. He flew Jim Sheridan to his home to get the part and showed him the beard & hair to which Sheridan seen that Harris was the man for the job - thank God! RIP Dickie.
Richard Harris, one of the greatest actors ever! This role was just so made for him. He was only brief but brilliant in Gladiator, the 1st movie I saw of him, was 'A Man Called Horse', where he wanted to be as one a Native American tribe. 2 peoples that have an entwined, distant history, a bond like the Mexicans and us. Look up the national holiday in Mexico, called St. Patricio Day. I was told a story that when Richard came to England to pursue and develope his dream of becoming an actor, one cold wet winter's Sunday, whilst out looking for a simple bed/roof over his head, on constantly being refused digs, on seeing the "No Irish, No Blacks, No Dogs", in the window, he picked up a small rock from the garden and smashed the window. Took out the paper that stated this, folded it and placed it into his wallet, then every time he was rejected acting roles and felt like giving up, he'd take out and unfold the note, read it for inspiration to never give up. The Irish spirit is truly something special. A small country, effectively one big farm, not only stood up to the might of the British Army, but saw them off, it tells you a lot about the people, peaceful people until you give them no choice, then you'll have no choice but to leave their lands, so potatoes of peace may once again be sowed. RIP Mr Harris. In many ways, you reminded me of many of my uncles.
sums up the British treatment of the Irish during the famine so accurately..... and they wonder why there was such disdain for them in Ireland up until recently, thank goodness that has been (for the most part) put to rest now but no wonder there was deep hatred, we lost 25 percent of our population because of their oppression and cruelty
And the utterly loathsome Charles Trevelyan in the British government was all for letting it happen. He was put in charge of famine relief and the amount he granted would be equivalent to £22 per person per year in today’s money, over 8 years. He’s buried in a Northumbrian churchyard with a cross on his grave. You at least have to admire his optimism.

All Irish have the Bull Mc Cabe inside them and now more then ever we need to claim our beautiful country back from the tyranny of the government . The Irish people is what matters first and foremost. 😢 to much of Irish blood has being spilled in the past … to give our country and heritage for this eu monoculture ideology. Erin go Bragh.
Yes i did! I heard that Harris was only supposed to play a smaller role in this movie, but then the actor was going to play The Bull actually died. Who was the other actor??
Mel Gibson has made some great movies, none more epic than Braveheart, enlightening people to what that evil King tried to do to Scotland and its people. A film which will forever be in my Top 5 movies. Isn't it long overdue for the same epicness to be made on a movie about the man-made, enforced starvation of the emerald Isle and its people? I'll leave it here, you know, in case Mr. Gibson just so happens to read it . . . .
And now it's the Irish doing it to themselves, we had an opportunity to vote nationalist in the last election and look at the result. Even this area of Mayo where the field was filmed voted for more of the same especially regarding the MEP's ,how John Waters or Dr Gerry Waters weren't voted in is beyond me, but considering the lack of media coverage towards nationalists it's really no surprise, God save Ireland 🇮🇪 from the GOMBEEN man, 🙏🙏
Damn I glad I didnt live in 1960s Ireland, it was way to religious and controversial. I feel sorry for Bulls wife being left alone looking after the farm and watching tv while her husband and son are in the pub getting pissed.
Having a telly in 1960's??? Jaysus they must have been on the big bucks. Sure towns back then would share house phones, nevermind having a telly to yourself
@theadizo Fair play to you... Most people are afraid or too ignorant to come to terms with the truth!!! And an excess of patriotism is xenephobia..... And did the idiots not know that we can eat other things besides potatoes ??? Like fish in the rivers, and the sea... wild animals.... fruit, berries, wheat etc. etc. It was ignorance that killed them, not a famine!!!
Poor, spud-eating bastards too ignorant to avail of the veritable cornucopia which surrounded them on all sides! Thick Micks starve in land of plenty! No wonder all the jokes involve stupidity and potatoes! Thanks for explaining it all to us again and again for the last 175 years!
@@johndanielharold3633 All land was owned by British landlords. Only crop Irish peasants were allowed to grow for themselves was the potato and even some of that had to be handed over as part of rent. Food was loaded onto ships bound for Britain at gunpoint.

It was not a famine , it was mass genocide for which your Empire should have been tried in the highest courts on this planet.

The famine and Irish suffering needs more media exposure and a proper film made.
Not a famine - an organized genocide.
like the Holocaust

@@donewithyourshit7303 sadly many were jabbed and brainwashed.....

I feel like a lot of people don't realize that Bull is a tragic character who can't let go.
He is tragic, but he's also dangerous. The Bull in the movie version is a lot more sympathetic than the original Bull is in the play

It was a time when Irish people had a pride and passion for there native country.
EXCELENTE
Yea in the play Bull complains that his wife dosnt talk to him, even when he got electricity for their house and bought her a TV .

I'm not Irish, but I take his side with extreme bias.
That's why.

Outsiders I don't think so😠🤠
I said it before but the Bull should lash Flanigan out of it for the sorry state of them pints of Guinness!
Proper humor!!
