INTERMISSION 2003 Irish Black Comedy Crime Film

Set in Dublin, Ireland, contains many interconnected storylines, and is shot in a documentary-like style, with some sections presented as excerpts from television programs that exist within the show (one of the storylines follows a television documentary director). It features several of Ireland's best-known actors, including Cillian Murphy, Kelly Macdonald, Colm Meaney and Colin Farrell, all of whom have featured in internationally successful films such as 28 Days Later (Murphy), Trainspotting (Macdonald), The Commitments (Meaney) and Minority Report (Farrell). The film opens with Lehiff (Colin Farrell) charming a pretty cashier. It is quickly revealed that Lehiff is a petty criminal and always involved in trouble. Lehiff's nemesis, Garda Detective Jerry Lynch (Colm Meaney), presents himself as a saviour whose main mission is to fight the "scumbags" on Dublin's streets. Watch out for the brown sauce sandwiches and sauce in the tea (dare you to try it).
