This tweet got me thinking about films or television shows filmed in, set in and/or depicting Derry or the north-west of Ireland. & #39;Derry Girls& #39;, & #39;Bloody Sunday& #39;, & #39;A Mother Bring Her Son to Be Shot& #39; and & #39;Battle of the Bogside& #39; immediately spring to mind, but what others are there? https://twitter.com/profmusgrave/status/1262157088870076417">https://twitter.com/profmusgr...

I& #39;m guessing the 1998 film & #39;Dancing at Lughnasa& #39;, starring Meryl Streep, is set in Donegal? I& #39;ve not seen it, but since the 1990 Brian Friel play, upon which the film is based, is set in a fictional Donegal town called Ballybeg (based on Glenties), I assume the film follows suit.

& #39;Battle of the Bogside& #39; (2004), a @VinnyCunningham documentary looking at residents& #39; defence of Bogside against RUC and loyalist incursion in August of 1969, at outset of "Troubles", that won "best documentary" at 2004 @IFTA Awards, is actually on YouTube. https://youtu.be/Gpg-pEpaSwU ">https://youtu.be/Gpg-pEpaS...

& #39;Bloody Sunday& #39; (2002) by Paul Greengrass and starring @JNesbittTV is on YouTube too.

Something I hadn& #39;t known until now; James Lifford Hewitt (Prince Harry& #39;s alleged biological father, who was actually born in Derry) features as a British army colonel. https://youtu.be/_C1Fb4DTSPs ">https://youtu.be/_C1Fb4DTS...

You can rent or buy @AMotherBrings on Vimeo (30% of proceeds go to @MindWisenv); worthwhile to understand the structural violence, deprivation, hopelessness and alienation from political process that fuels "dissident" republicanism in neglected communities. https://vimeo.com/ondemand/amotherbrings">https://vimeo.com/ondemand/...
