Movie #1051 "5 Minutes of Heaven" --- continuing my search for good Irish films, I came across this one , and it was just okay. Interesting premise ---- young man from Belfast shoots the brother of this younger boy because of catholics vs. protestant "troubles" and now a journalist thinks it would be good to put the two together for an interview. Well, guess what happens? Let's just say, it isn't pretty. The two actors redeem the slow plodding of the plot --- and once again, like "Bloody Sunday" the high point is good, but it's the getting there that is too draining.
