Black RUC man/ black teacher, pure fantasy
These nut jobs are too afraid to speak the truth so they go along with this rubbish
And you’re racist.
@@Belfastboi Why is stating facts racist? Explain. Do you not like facts ?
@@Belfastboi not racist at all
stop trying to rewrite history ...
@@Belfastboi and you're a white masochist, woman
Branagh's new film:
'The Black and Tans'.
These days it's more likely to be the black and trans.
@@gregmcfarnon1140 just wait till you see his remake of "Zulu"
I’d like to report this but unbelievably RACIST is not listed as a complaint
@@Belfastboi Amazing how Durham has a renowned university were none of the locals go because they either have no intelligence to attend or they are out out by blow ins.
The Story of the Beatles.
Jamaican John, Pakistani Paul, Gabonese George and Refugee Ringo.
Hello, I am an African journalist. Why are you gay?
I see that you are gay, why is this so?
A multi ethnic Belfast in 1969? Are you having a laugh? But young people will believe it. Shame on Brannagh.
Exactly. Fake history
Not many young people who were born before the GFA
There were no minority’s living in Belfast in the 60s , 70s or 80s so why include them in this film . Absolute B.S. and I won’t be watching it if it isn’t an actual portrayal .
It's utterly pathetic. That shitshow of a Darling buds of may remake with Bradley 'i'm in everything' Walsh, did the same thing. Random black guy in a 50's country village who everyone accepts without question. They have had a black Anne Boleyn, Maid Marion, Achilles and numerous others now. Yet, Scarlett Johansson had to apologise for 'culturally appropriating ' a role when she was cast in ghost in the shell. White history and culture is being trampled over, and it makes my blood fucking boil. Just wait for Black Bond...
There was a coloured RUC officer in the early 1980’s, fact!
@@speedster2464 brannagh was long gone by then fact!
@@speedster2464 show me the proof?.
@@speedster2464 I’m still waiting on your proof , so where is it ?. You have no proof because you were lying and are F.O.S..
Interesting racial mix Belfast had in those days 😂
I loved seeing black teachers in Belfast, Chinese students, Indian shop owners ---such an accurate portrayal of history Ken. And I've no doubt that didn't make Eamonn squirm in his seat one bit. Belfast wasn't 100% White. It was London 2022!!
And just so the fucking sellout could get his precious film made. It's a bit like you being desperate to make a jam sponge cake, but the person giving you the ingredients only gives you honey. Yet you are so desperate to make it you just go with it. It just goes to show artistic integrity, and authenticity are not the main aim of these celeb arseholes. It's all about money and accolades. Which this will surely get. As it won't be the acting, writing and cinematography that are being judged during awards season, but the Diversity tick boxes, as fantastical as they are, that will get this shower of shit it's precious statuettes. Utterly, utterly shameful. Everyone, especially the people of Belfast should boycott this abomination.
@@jtaylor9562 Well said,totally agree with you.
The diversity included is over the top apparently, and Brannagh wouldn't have got the finance if he didn't include it. A lot of Belfast people complained about it, surprised with Brannagh, only people under 60 would be interested as not true to life
I watch History Debunked as well.
Showing themselves for who they are. I can’t believe people even say this out loud it’s a film, it’s art and it should be inclusive. We can’t just make films with white people in them all the time. He is helping shifting perspective. Give him credit
@@Belfastboi No it is a total distortion of history. It is fake. No black or Chinese people were in Belfast at the time. Why lie and fake history.
@@HarveyPaul007 First Indian retail business began in
Londonderry in 1943; The first recorded Chinese restaurant (The Peacock) opened in
1962 in Belfast.
@@lambsey06 So you think the film is an accurate reflection?
Saw this film recently with my wife who is a Dublin born Irish Catholic my own mother was born in County Cork and we loved it, I found it moving and funny the lad playing Buddy was/is a star in the making and I also found it interesting to hear an Irish story from a "Protestant" viewpoint often the Irish story is always the catholic view point "the rebels" etc anyway really enjoyed it.
Well if she’s in born in Dublin, she’s obviously Irish, regardless of her religion….and a Catholic viewpoint is always “the rebels” ????? I suggest you spend more time in your wife’s birthplace !
Your comment just sounds like one big cliche
@@trevaudio Not necessarily true. We have plenty of Africans born in Ireland these days. ZERO of them are Irish. The old classic 'if you were born in a stable does that make you a horse?'. :)
The film is woke. It places black and Chinese people in it that would never have been in Belfast at that time. It is a fake take on history. Totally distorted.
Branagh claimed the film was an accurate account of the times in Belfast in he lived as a small boy. Total nonsense!! Belfast was 100% white at the time. He only got backing for the film if he would introduce black people in the film. For example, a black shop keeper - give me a break. I watched between bouts of laughter.
Racist
Exactly.
@@Belfastboi It is the truth. Belfast was 100 % White at the time. Prove me wrong. Woke people like you complicit in brain washing our children with fake history. Grow up
That made me laugh out loud, a real belly laugh
Ian Paisley to be played by Lenny Henry 😂😂🎥
I liked the research on the Rathcoole bus route number of the day.
They got it right, 161A.
The best irish film ever made was the commitments great music and so funny that young lad trying to take a horse into the lift classic 🇮🇪😄🤣
We wuz ulster ....
Saw it with my mate. Would highly recommend.
Well I will definitely go to see this Movie after those reviews, the whole Ethnic thing is a bit worrying only in the sense that those of us who were there know better, it was not that there were no Indians or Africans in N.I. at the time but they were very few on the ground and certainly not in the Police or running corner shops. Twenty years later this was less unusual due to ex soldiers who when they left the Army came back to N.I.
Hoey didn’t like the hunger strike talk !
well its a breakfast show, you can hardly bang on about pastie suppers that early in the mornin
Love how factual it is with the different nationalities in the film 🤨🤨🤨🤨
Exactly why I refuse to see this… If you want to see accurate films about that period: Cal, In the name of the father, Titanic Town, Bloody Sunday are far more credible
Took my mom to go watch it, the cinematography was nice but the plot was paper thin. Focused on a Protestant family and not the Catholics who were being murdered each and every day, it was not fit for it's names sake.
@Sinead Marie. What would you expect ? It's autobiographical !
What? Protestants aren't allowed to tell their story?? ✋️🇬🇧🏴🏴
@@TheSteve2305 It was pretty frigging boring, self-serving story, and many critics agree.
@@sinnyozzy yeah whatever, you sound like a catholic bigot. That's why Ulster will never be ruled by the Irish.
@@TheSteve2305 Of course they allowed tell their stories, as everyone else is. Unfortunately, some people insist on everything being viewed through a political lense.
Except now he’s asking why there was an Indian shopkeeper and a black policeman in the movie. Shall we just have white people in the movies Eamonn? Really embarrassing.
History should be portrayed accurately. Their was no black, Chinese, or Indian people in Belfast at that time. It was 100% white .
It is meant to be historic. There were no blacks in Belfast in the 70s (except maybe a few in the British army).
