Abstract
Contemporary Irish Cinema: From The Quiet Man to Dancing at Lughnasa presents seventeen eclectic chapters ranging in topic from the poetic documentaries of John Davis to John Ford's 1952 variously reviled and revered The Quiet Man. Chapters on My LeftFoot, Pigs, The Field, In the Name of the Father, Synge, Joyce, John Huston, and Neil Jordan among others, are all located between these two poles. The final chapter, a selected filmography of Irish and Irish-related feature films compiled by Anthony Kirby and MacKillop, provides an extremely useful starting point for those interested in investigating this topic further.
