Review of The Wind That Shakes the Barley (2006) by Jack Mathews for New York Daily News — 21 Aug 2012
Beautifully shot, both in darkened homes and on the misty green Irish landscape.
By Loach's frequent cinematographer Barry Aykroyd, "Wind" has a you-are-there.
Intensity and intimacy about it that make it nearly overwhelming. But for all.
Its violence and subsequent sadness, it's a movie of extraordinary importance.
