An Cailín Ciúin/The Quiet Girl || Directed by Colm Bairéad || 2022

Review in Irish:

‘The Quiet Girl’ scríofa agus stiúrtha ag Colm Bairéad. Leanann cailín ciúin a bhfuil faillí á déanamh aici a chuirtear ar shiúl óna teaghlach mífheidhmiúil chun cónaí lena gaolta ar feadh an tsamhraidh. Bíonn sí faoi bhláth faoina gcúram, ach sa teach seo nach bhfuil rún ar bith ann, faigheann sí amach ceann. Faighimid léargas ar an domhan ó dhearcadh linbh naoi mbliana d'aois le comhbhá ag dul ó gach lámhaigh, gach gluaiseacht beag. Cineamatagrafaíocht iontach. Go héasca ar cheann de na scannáin is fearr de 2022 dom, chomh bródúil as a bheith Éireannach agus tacú leis na scannáin a thagann ónár dtír.

If you're looking for a new movie to watch during the strike: WATCH AN CAILÍN CIUIN/THE QUIET GIRL! PLEASE DEAR G-D. It just got released on Hulu (but... you don't have to watch it there if you know what i mean) and I promised myself if it ever got an american release that i would get literally every person i know to watch it.

Rookie-Critic's Top 25 Films of 2022: #6: The Quiet Girl (dir. Colm Bairéad)

Here's another case to be made for my crazed weeks-long binge to watch everything nominated at the Oscars this year. I would have never heard of this film if it hadn't been nominated for (and, in my opinion, should have won) Best International Feature. The story of a little girl, Cáit, who is shy, reserved, quiet, and timid by nature. This causes her family to view her as a burden, as a thing to be worked around instead of interacted with. So much so, that they pawn her off on a foster family when summer hits so they can go about their lives without worrying about her. From the instant the film starts, my heart bled for Cáit. While I wasn't as severely timid as she is in the film, and I had a family that was very supportive of me, I was intensely shy and had a hard time interacting with others as a kid. I can't even imagine living life like that under a roof that doesn't feel safe, where you not only feel like you're holding everyone back, but are basically being told and treated as such. To feel like you are unworthy of love because of something you haven't been given the tools to change as a 9-year-old is debilitating in a major way, and The Quiet Girl seeks to show the power of how much even a little caring and love can do. The film moves itself along slowly, taking its time in building its characters, showing their growth gradually, and at a pace that is so believable, it took me until right at the film's end to notice what the whole thing had been building up to. The last two words of the film, delivered with the emotional depth of a thousand oceans by newcomer Catherine Clinch (who plays Cáit), shattered any possible wall I had around my heart and had me in a puddle of my own tears as the credits rolled. With those last two words, everything clicked into place, and I understood what everything I had been watching for the last 90 minutes had been for. To put yourself in Cáit's shoes for that final moment, you realize that new life had been breathed into a concept that she probably didn't know could be any more than what she already knew. This film is about care, about growth, and about the power of what a truly loving home can do for a child that feels like they don't belong.

Currently available to rent/purchase on digital (iTunes, Amazon, Vudu, etc.). Sadly, no Blu-ray/DVD has been announced for a North American release yet. I hope that changes soon.

OMG AN CAILÍN CIÚIN!!! LETS GOOO

[denimbex1986]

'Cillian Murphy is now the favourite to bag the Oscar for Best Actor after BoyleSports slashed his odds to even money from 6/1.

The Cork-born star of Oppenheimer has been backed gradually as Christopher Nolan’s biographical thriller smashes box office records and he has now moved ahead of Leonardo DiCaprio to snag one of the biggest prizes at next year’s Academy Awards.

DiCaprio’s drift to 9/4 from 7/4 in the betting for his role in Killers Of The Flower Moon means he is now second favourite to Murphy.

Martin Scorsese’s western drama is set to hit cinema screens in October, but at 11/4 it trails Oppenheimer at 7/4 in the race for the Best Picture gong...

Dubliner Barry Keoghan is back as an infatuated student in thriller Saltburn and his chances of walking off with the Oscar for Best Actor have already been trimmed into 14/1 from 20/1.

Lawrence Lyons, spokesperson for BoyleSports, said: “There could be a green assault on the red carpet again next year with Cillian Murphy now in the box seat for an Oscar and Barry Keoghan is coming into the picture before his new movie has even dropped.”

Meanwhile, the Irish Film Institute (IFI) has announced that Oppenheimer has become the highest grossing film for the IFI — overtaking the Oscar-nominated An Cailín Ciúin.

IFI Cinema Programmer Kevin Coyne said: “The success of Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer at the IFI is a tribute to the director’s ability to create mature, thought-provoking films that are best enjoyed and appreciated on the big screen, with an audience of fellow film fans.

“We are particularly pleased to be able to present the work of someone who is such an advocate for the cinema experience on this magnificent 70mm format, as he prefers.”'

i know it was an issue a couple of years ago with another film but the banshees of inisheerin and an cailin ciuin both getting nominated in the catagories they got nominated in really does drive home that for hollywood a “foreign film” is one that is Not In English regardless of who colonized whom and why that might affect language 

[potatoleeksoup]

ZEA hello. i feel like youve seen every movie that came out last year do you have opinions on best picture/actor/actress/etc???

tee hee thank you for asking 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩 i love to talk about this stuff. and BOY do i have opinions!!! the movies this year were imo not... great... usually i have a real dog in the fight and a true favorite from my heart to root for but this time not really! anyway in this essay i will

best picture is kind of gnarly because at least 50% of these are hack jobs. my favorite of the bunch is banshees but i do not think that should win.. it probably will be everything everywhere and i think that's pretty much the right move. but this is an ugly category!!!! elvis is abominable all quiet is a bad adaptation that misses the point i hatedddd tar the fabelmans is self-indulgent top gun is propaganda women talking is stupid and ugly etc etc...

cate is kind of undeniable for best actress even though tar was really not for me i think she's doing good work.. but again michelle yeoh should and hopefully will win for an equally great performance plus an incredible body of unrecognized work. boring category despite the controversy!

if austin butler wins best actor im burning hollywood to the ground. it's colin farrell for me !!!!!!

i want brian tyree henry in supporting actor but that will neverrrr happen... supporting actress is such a stacked category. i think i want it to be hong chau but i will also clap and cheer for angela bassett

my pet category is international feature but this year i just go blind with rage when i think about it because of the unthinkable and incomprehensible decision to leave SNUB!!!!!!! i haven't seen eo yet but of the rest... i would be happiest with an cailin ciuin although i thought argentina 1985 was good! id like to kill lukas dhont with my bare hands so if anyone has intel on his current location please contact me thank you

i could talk about this stuff forever and i probably will be insufferable on oscar night because i firmly believe despite having no credentials that i should be invited to vote in the academy. i could turn that sinking ship AROUND!!!!! i would have nominated decision to leave for best picture AND made sure it won. then we could all be happy

ANYWAY UMMM..... yeah 👼 but you've been seeing stuff too what do you think???

[dullahandyke]

i can't remember if i've already asked you this but have you seen song of the sea

I haven't I'm a sham of an Irishman :( havent seen any cartoon saloon movies, not seen an cailín ciuin, not seen the banshee of inisheeran... they r all on my list tho

Beannachadh Cuain

Thi tha chomhnadh nan ard,

Tiuirich duinn do bheannachd aigh,

Iomchair leinn air bharr an t-sal,

Iomchair sinn gu cala tamh,

Beannaich ar sgioba agus bat,

Beannaich gach acair agus ramh,

Gach stadh is tarruinn agus rac,

Ar siuil-mhora ri crainn ard

Cum a Righ nan dul ’n an ait

Run ’s gu ’n till sinn dachaidh slan;

Suidhidh mi fain air an stiuir,

Is e Mac Ler a bheir domh iuil,

Mar a thug e Brain ciuin,

��N am dha stadh a chur ri siuil.

Boïnde, Bhride, Ogma,

Loga, Nuadat, na Morriogna,

In Dagdai a ghraidh

Doirtibh oirnn an driuchd o’n aird,

Bheireadh oirnn ’s a chreideamh fas,

Daingnibh sinn ’s a Charraig Ail,

Anns gach reachd a dhealbhas gliocas,

Run ’s gu ’n ruig sinn tir an aigh,

Am hi sith is seirc is baigh

Cróeb dind abaill a hEmain

Chaoidh chan fhaigh a chnoimh ’n ar dail,

Bithidh sinn tearuint ann gu brath,

Cha bhi sinn an geimhlibh bais,

Ge do tha sinn do shiol Nemid

La Co-fhad-thràth an Fhoghair, La Fheill Samhna,

La Grian-stad an Geamhraidh, grèine nan Gràs,

La Feill Bride, la mo luaidh,

Tilg an nimhir sios an chuan,

Feuch an dean e slugadh suas;

La Co-fhad-thràth an Earraich, la nam buadh,

Sorchair oirnn an stoirm o thuath,

Casg a fraoch, maol a gruam,

Diochd a gairge, marbh a fuachd.

La Callaig shuas,

Ciuinich dhuinne barr nan stuadh,

La Bealltain thoir an driuchd,

La Grian-stad an t-Samhraidh, thoir an ciuin,

La Fheill Loga, mar nan char,

Seachainn oirnn an stoirm o ’n iar,

Gach la ’s oidhche, gach stoirm is fiamh,

Bi thusa leinn, a Thriath nan triath,

Bi fein duinn ad chairt-iuil,

Biodh do lamh air failm ar stiuir,

Do lamh fein, a Dhe nan dul,

Moch is anamoch mar is iul,

Moch is anamoch mar is iul.

118 The ocean blessing 

O Thou who pervadest the depths,

Imprint on us Thy gracious blessing,

Carry us over the surface of the sea,

Carry us safely to a haven of peace,

Bless our boatmen and our boat,

Bless our anchors and our oars,

Each stay and halyard and traveller,

Our mainsails to our tall masts

Keep, O King of the elements, in their place

That we may return home in peace;

I myself will sit down at the helm,

It is Lir’s own Son who will give me guidance,

As He gave to Bran mac Febail

What time he set stay to sails. 

Boínn, Bríd, Oghma,

Lugh, Nuada, an Mórrígan,

an Dagda of love,

Pour ye down from above the dew

That would make our faith to grow,

Establish ye us in the Rock of rocks,

In every law that love exhibits,

That we may reach the land of glory,

Where peace and love and mercy reign,

All vouchsafed to us through grace;

Never shall the canker worm get near us,

We shall there be safe for ever,

We shall not be in the bonds of death

Though we are of the seed of Caorthann and Fearn.

On the Feast Day of Cónocht an Fómhair, the Feast Day of Samhain,

The Feast Day of Grianstad an Gheimhridh, sun of mercy,

The Feast Day of Bríd, day of my choice,

Cast ye the serpent into the ocean,

So that the sea may swallow her up;

On the Feast Day of Cónocht an Earraigh, day of power,

Reveal to us the storm from the north,

Quell its wrath and blunt its fury,

Lessen its fierceness, kill its cold. 

On the Day of Hogmanay on high,

Subdue to us the crest of the waves,

On Lá Bealtaine give us the dew,

On Grianstad an tSamhraidh the gentle wind,

The Day of Lugh the great of fame,

Ward off us the storm from the west;

Each day and night, storm and calm,

Be Thou with us, O Chief of chiefs,

Be Thou Thyself to us a compass-chart,

Be Thine hand on the helm of our rudder,

Thine own hand, Thou God of the elements,

Early and late as is becoming,

Early and late as is becoming.
