Scenario
The real Dolours Price was married for two decades (1983-2003) to the Irish actor Stephen Rea
During that period, Rea appeared in the movie for which he is arguably best known in the United States: the 1992 romantic thriller The Crying Game.
Quite the devastating story
In that film, Rea plays Fergus, an extremely reluctant and ambivalent member of the Irish Republican Army (IRA)–the same organization that Price was involved with for many years..
Probably the most heart wrenching piece of "entertainment" I’ve never seen was episode #6
The younger Price sisters are amazingly well portrayed by 2 actresses I had never heard of (Lola Petticrew and Hazel Doupe).
Hope to see them get more mainstream roles going forward
Anthony Boyle also jumped off the screen in every scene he was in.
Although, I wouldn’t suggest watching it in 1 day like I did if you’ll lose some sleep
The show couldn’t have been cast any better.I was only vaguely familiar with this story and haven’t read the book, so I can’t speak to the shows accuracy, but I can say the dialogue is well written and the directors did a fantastic job.Would absolutely recommend watching this show.
