I still enjoy the film---I watch it every year sometime between St. Pat's Day and Easter, the bottle of Jameson's or John Power & Sons at my side---despite the numerous historical errors (Dev, for example, made mistakes, but he was in no way complicit in the murder of the Big Fellow), and the presence of Julia Roberts (!).
But, the plain truth is Neil Jordan is no Ken Loach.
