It's on my DVD rental list, but as at the moment I'm working my way through West Wing, it might be a while before I get to it. Definitely looking forward to seeing it.
I tend to the view that Collins took what he could get when he could get it, but I don't really have a detailed knowledge of the situation at the time, so I won't pontificate on that one. :)
On a tangent, the Michael Collins song by the Wolftones (on the disc you sent me), there's a line that goes (at least according to all the lyrics sites) "Oh when will the young men a sad lesson spurn, that brother and brother they never should turn". That doesn't make sense. Surely it should be either "a sad lesson learn" or "Why do the young men a sad lesson spurn"? Ah well, song lyrics often fail to make sense.
