Cinema and Ireland by Kevin Rockett, Luke Gibbons and John Hill
This book also examines the way in which the British cinema, in particular, has characteristically represented Irish history in terms of a recurring Irish proclivity for violence and how these images in turn have exerted a continuing influence on films such as Angel and Cal.
