One of the masterpiece and a movie which is hard to forget.recently i knew this movie is the based on the book with same title.i saw this movie about 20yr ago.Main actor(kid)'s acting is speechless.Stephen Rea is great actor.
It's one of my favourite films because even though it's hilarious, it's about how Ireland has never been able to properly deal with mental illness, and that remains one of Ireland's biggest problems even today. Neil Jordan's best film, by far.
@@conan6939 I wasn't implying that any country has dealt with mental illness or ever truly will, but Ireland has a particularly bad cultural tendency to suppress trauma and bury guilt, most likely as a consequence of years of brutal occupation by both the British empire and the Catholic church, which this film shows very well.
"Ireland not able to properly deal with mental illness" Have you heard about the U.S. Lately? Leftist Crazy's running the country now. Big Tech Free Speech Censoring, Mainstream Media, Collegiate Left Wing Indoctrination, Cancel Culture, WOKE, BLM, ANTIFA, The ACLU, Dinosaur DEMOCRATS suffering from dementia (running the country), wide spread Heroin Abuse, TRILLIONS of Dollars printed in free hand outs and Hundreds of Billions in U.S. Currency sent to aid Ukraine, all adding to massive inflation, Millions of Migrants storming the So Border, food shortages, etc, etc, etc,.
I've watched it about few times and it's kinda very funny. It follows Francis "Francie" Brady, a 12-year-old troublemaker who retreats into a violent fantasy world as his troubled home life collapses. I remember he takes a big pile of crap in the living room at Mrs. Nugent's house. Oh my god, that is absolutely vile! This was the final film to be produced by Geffen before their 1998 closure.
awesome movie!!, to think they just found that kid in a school somewhere, never acted a day in his life!!, god bless irish cinema, where movies arent just about pretty people and sex appeal!
O filme estadunidense chamado Nó na Garganta,de Neil Jordan, pode não superar o melhor filme de tal cineasta que é o extraordinário Traídos pelo Desejo... Mais nem por isso Nó na Garganta não deixa de ser excelente!
This is one of the best movies I ever watched, it shows up how much physical and psychological abuse the child got though all the movie, here never feel sorry for those who he hurted, in fact I think the Nugets deserved it
@@conan6939 there is a difference between a psychopath and a sociopath. One of them is where he does care about his mother dying and the other where he doesn't .
@@61505 that is not how you determine the difference between a psychopath and a sociopath. You need way more context than that. There are normal ppl who wouldn't care about their mother dying in certain circumstances.
it's actually horrible....horribly great movie in fact! made quite an impression on me, first watched this as a 8-9 yr old kid, on HBO. I think it twisted me a little bit. Kid, if you're reading this, don't watch gritty irish movies made in the 90's, they will scar you for life. PIG! edit: Angela's ashes, that's also a nice comedy, don't you think ?
this is one of those movies that if you saw it - you'll never forget.
my uncle wrote the book! :)
No way. Ur kidding.
Brilliant!
Class!
Just finished it, it's such an amazing book!!
Wow! Small world
A masterpiece. This film will stay with you for days. Eamonn Owens is brilliant.
Agreed.i checked him on wikipedia.i am wondering what is he doing..now.
@@seeyouinheaven he works 9-5 job in big bank.
Really scary too!
My dad showed me this film, it has never left me its absolutely amazing
Rest in power, Sinead O'Connor, hope you've found peace at last.

Really!?Where!?

So many cultural issues addressed in this movie.
No Country has 'delt' with mental illness.
@@conan6939 Many countries do now, although poorly.

Trainspotting and The Butcher Boy the 2 best films of the 90's
And pulp fiction
amazing movie!, and to think, that kid was just some kid they found in a school :D, amazing
Watched this when I was like 7 n I still remember it
It's rated 15
I was 10. Never forgot about it either. The amazing Francie Brady!
I just finished reading the book and it is dark and depressing and disturbing. This movie seems more hopeful yet heart-wrenching.
A little Hilarious.
It's supposed to be a dark comedy film.

Amazing film. I didn't know that about this film. Thank you.
There's something wholesome about the way Ireland makes movies.
Rewatched it again today, cracking flick!
Rewatched this recently. It's a very sad film behind it all. I seen this in the cinema when I was 16 and just thought it was a laugh.
It's dark and sad, an honest movie at the same time.
I grew up with this movie and its book 💕
Another great film from director Neil Jordan.
Masterpiece , i Had the video cassete , watched it So Many times … what a movie
I saw this film when I was a kid and was mind blown by it and only just discovered what it's called.
Watched it when I was wee. Very disturbing sad film but very funny in parts.

yup!

the child may have been abused but he is also a sociopath or psychopath
@@61505 Not necessarily. A sociopath or psychopath wouldn't have cared about his Mother dying.

I wanna watch this. I accidentally found out about it going down some Wikipedia rabbit hole and now I wanna see this.
Masterpiece
I remember as a kid, i had to watch the movie with subtitles cause i couldn't understand most of the characters cause the accent lol
I love this movie

+Sheklel Its actually an Irish movie. Very insulting.
you're right. sorry about that. won't make the same mistake twice.
+Sheklel Appreciated! thanks
Overkin me too! I never could forget this movie. It chokes you up while you’re laughing at the absurd cruelty.
i don,t know how you could mistake it for british with their strong cavan monahan Irish accents
The cover of this movie looks like a horror movie. False advertisement 😒
anything you can do to crap on the church. palpable self loathing
They did a good enough job at that themselves
It was pretty fucking horrendous. Made me feel like shit.
wtf?! Gay
truly. it was the kid that annoyed the shit out of me. idk why people rave over this film
Over your head lad
