Movie Reviews of The Irish Empire

Movie Review: Excellent condensation of Irish diaspora around the world
Summary: 5 Stars

Concise, no nonsense story of Irish emigrant struggles and triumphs since the Great Famine.
Better than usual story of the Irish in Australia, which is often overlooked by historians who tend to highlight the American experience.

Another positive aspect is the Irish contribution to the professions, especially the teaching profession. Most analyists tend to show the Irish just as laborers or policemen, and ignore how many went on to college and entered the professions.

All in all, this series is as good or better than previous attempts to define the Irish, and should be must viewing for anyone serious about Irish studies.
