The Banshees of Inisherin 2022
Theres a lot I loved in here. The comedy, the Irish accents, the performances (Barry Keoghan especially), and the themes.
It’s about life. Friendship. Time. Dreams. Love. Loyalty. The legacy of achievements vs the comfort of simplicity.

I don’t think I’ve cried this much for a film ever. Hell, I’ve only seriously cried for character deaths in the Lion King & Avengers:Endgame. This movie is phenomenal in so many ways. Jim Carrey absolutely STEALS THE SHOW.
This movie puts emphasis on the importance of a journey, and not the end. We always put too much emphasis on how things end - “oh he/she hates me now so all of that was pointless.” How we forget the little (and…
