The Wind That Shakes the Barley If you like depressing movies and you get twice the bang for your buck since it is about the Irish War of Independence and the Irish Civil War. That and is beautifully well made and then makes you want to go just get drunk so to stop feeling the emotions afterwards, like a real Irish person! lol That or Stalingrad (The 1993 Version), which is another depressing war movie about a group of German infantry during the Battle of Stalingrad and it is depressing, sad, and real on ways that are hard to describe.
