I came across Odd Men In by accident. My bessie mate in school was Jewish (RIP). We walked those same streets together in the 1970's. Harrry Towb was a great actor and this is a gem of a documentary. I learnt loads.
I am the great grandson of Rabbi John Ross. I would like to visit Belfast in June 2019 to learn more about him and what it was like to be Jewish in Belfast at the time. I would love to speak with anyone who might be knowledgable about he and/or the topic.
Bruce, you're probably best to contact the Belfast Jewish Community directly via their website at www.belfastjewishcommunity.org.uk/ or Facebook page at facebook.com/pages/category/Community-Organization/Belfast-Jewish-Community-338301336357644/
I'm surprised they weren't sick of seeing the Christians of Northern Ireland batter eachother over silly nonsense like religious differences and identity.
They gave a slight inaccurate telling of the history of the movement of Lithuanian Jews. Most of those who came to Ireland settled in Dublin and Cork, and there is still a small but influential Jewish community in Dublin.

I love Harry Towb, such a talented man. I miss his presence.

This is wonderful ..interesting
Dermot Keogh, prof of history in UCC, wrote a book called "the history of the Jews of Ireland" i think it's out of print, not 100 per cent sure!
Are you you a protestant or a catholic jew? LOL Is that Belfast or what?
Being Jewish is not only Religious but a Racial thing
And until now I thought it was just an old joke...to think it really happened. *smh* Irish people...they are unique, certainly.
Jews hate Jesus that why the high priest Caiaphus wanted him dead
1:35 That's actually an old joke...the punchline is in fact, "I can't believe it...I'm the luckiest Arab in all of Belfast!"
Remember him well as the know-it-all Englishman in the Younger's Beer adverts.
What a total opposite of Henry Compton in Home James!
He seems a nice person
completely unaware Mr. Tawb was Brit!!!
Are you a protestant Jew or A Catholic Jew?? I am one but not the other!
Read Alexander Solzenycin's latest work, "Two hundred years together", if you''ll brave the truth, and find out what really happened in Russia.

Why have 19 people downvoted this?
Sadly, I have an inkling.
Yes, Judeophobia is an age-old disease of the gentile mind.
@@schechter01 How do you know they were gentiles that down voted it?
Northern Irish so still Brit
Jews don't care about Northern Ireland constitutional question.
