The striking thing to me is how little difference I notice between the Irish police as they portray them and American police. The procedures seem very much the same.Sandra Parshallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17403144248962124138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-33809041459110270412012-01-27T19:31:47.991-05:002012-01-27T19:31:47.991-05:00I saw the movie The Guard last night, after hearin...I saw the movie The Guard last night, after hearing raves about Brendan Gleeson's performance on DorothyL--he got a well deserved Golden Globe nomination. It's quite another view of Ireland and the Garda, and as poignant as it is funny. Part of the fun is the love-hate relationship between the Irish and the Americans, with Don Cheadle playing an FBI agent hunting some of those drug Elizabeth Zelvinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13944424094949207841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-31219979812791371342012-01-27T17:13:48.126-05:002012-01-27T17:13:48.126-05:00Interesting, Sheila!

Its heritage is long and troubled, and Ireland is so beautiful that there is an amazing amount of poignancy attached to reading about it.lil Glucksternhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09288522126331817172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-57744510534041896112012-01-27T08:51:37.666-05:002012-01-27T08:51:37.666-05:00Great article, Sheila -- very informative!
