- Trailer for Neil Jordan's film starring Liam Neeson, Aidan Quinn, Stephen Rea, Alan Rickman, Julia Roberts, Ian Hart, Gerard McSorley, Brendan Gleeson, Charles Dance, Jonathan Rhys Meyers,
I wish they still did trailers like this. Not giving away the whole story but stirs up emotions and gets you invested. So much better than today's trailers.
I am a distant cousin of Michael Collins and I am absolutely taken aback by a couple comments. Some of the back story may be fiction, but the general premise is valid. Michael Collins was a great man, one whom I am proud to share lineage with. People die everyday, but at least Collins died for a cause he believed in. When's the last time you put your life on the line for a cause... @JuanMacready
I'm not Irish and know very little about Michael Collins, but this movie looks intriguing! I do love Liam Neeson.
He played the part very well
Michael collins will always be a hero
This movie can turn any pacifist into a hardcore Republican...
idk what you're talking about...6 beers later...TIOCFAIDH AR LA
Conor McGuire Ja
Lol up the Ra
Liam Neeson needs another AMAZING role. I know people enjoy the "Wronged Liam Neeson growls and shoots his way through Scary Europe" genre (Taken, Unknown), but he was SO amazing in films such as this one and Schindler's List and, more recently, Kinsey.
Amazing film. Especially since my family knew many people who fought in the 1916 Easter Rising, one of them being my great grandfather.
love this film and makes me proud to be irish and wave the trí colors proudly on easter sunday to comemerate those who gave their lives to save ireland up the irish
Films like this make me proud to be from Ireland. It shows how our ancestors were brave enough to oppose British tyranny and remove them from our land, before they murdered even more civillians than they had already done. It mightn't have worked out completely because the bastards still technically own the north, but we will never give up. Éireann go bragh.
Bloody brilliant film.
The Greatest Film Ever !
r.i.p Alan Rickman
+Donavan McMahon R.I.P the men and women who died for our country only to turn in their graves as what it has become.
Well to be fair, i live in the United States. But I am Irish. At lest we're not Scotland.
Donavan McMahon what do you mean?
stuck with the UK
Donavan Caudle think you seem to forget about the 45% of us Scots who to this day are still fighting for our independence.
I never knew that was about that. Gonna watch now
This movie has one of the best film scores ever made. Elliot Goldenthal, ftw.
Michael Collins is my favorite movie.
This has both my favorite actors, Liam Neeson and Alan Rickman!
The battle is eternal, our people are dying and our language is also.
Viva Michael Collins.
Wellington, Wolseley, Kitchener, Auchinleck, Kelly-Kenny, Roberts, Pakenham, French, Wilson, Wolfe etc were all Irish for a start.
Harold Jameson Anglo Irish and French Hugenoet Irish not Irish natives.
The worst and saddest day ever for Ireland 🇮🇪 the murder of Michael Collins Greatest irishman ever ❤️
Best fucking movie ever!!!! Makes me cry every time :,(
Thumbs up if Michael Collins is your hero
strange i was just looking at flame and citron and commented how it reminded me a bit of michael collins, i came to this video and noticed you had been commented on both vids
Im Irish and this film makes me proud to be from Eire but there was no love between Michael Collins and kitty and my 6th class teacher also told my class when we watched it in 6th class
"...were destroyed with fire and sword; nor was there any to bury those who had been thus cruelly slaughtered. Some of the miserable remainder, being taken in the mountains, were butchered in heaps; others, spent with hunger, came forth and submitted themselves to the enemy for food, being destined to undergo perpetual servitude, if they were not killed even upon the spot some, with sorrowful hearts, fled beyond the seas."
WHY HAVE I NEVER HEARD OF THIS?!
TopBunkProductions They don't want you to.
dizzy365 Especially not with what's going on in the UK right now.
Because it was terrible. Julia Roberts? Oof.
Michael Collins u brave legend respect from the Irish up their looking down
Every people/nation requires control over it's destiny, and though all have a right to be become a country. It's not as much about economics or power (this can sometimes improve, sometimes get worst) as its about culture, language, justice, bonds and pride. It is a natural and logical desire, that exists deep in every man. A nation is NEVER better off living under the rules of another group. I'm sure the vast majority of the people of Ireland are glad and would never go back.
Yet another of your points backed up by tons of facts.
I honestly can't believe you trolled me for so long.
I got chills from those bagpipes at 0:19 anyone knows which song or whatever is that?
Calamy Christopher Elliot Goldenthal - Winter Raid
thank you!!!
The uilleann pipes are played by Davy Spillane
it just shows you how much Ireland as a nation has developed over the past century
lol
I can't believe the budget on this movie was €25 million and it only made €27.5 million back at the box office this is a classic movie about Irish history and how we fucked the English over after 700 years of them doing it to use the Irish people. Of Michael Collins was still alive today he would be disgusted with the way the Irish people and country has turn out to be after him getting are independence and freedom from the English. And I can't believe that we has an American as president and taoisecht
It's probably made more over time with being shown on TV and DVD sales.
@123cjv2: I think there was no struggle at all during the great famine, so the biggest struggle from a military point of view occurred under the Earl of Tyrone and during the invasion of Oliver Cromwell.
It's from the score of the movie by Elliot Goldenthal, very rare score to find in shops.
Wow!
The song at 0:20 is"Winter Raid" by Elliot Goldenthal, which you can find here
Oscars 1996: Best Original Dramatic Score
Someone should put on CZcams this Michael Collins soundtrack.. Train station farewall(by Elliott Goldenthal)(the one you can hear til second 0.19)
THANKS EVERYBODY!
Enjoy it as long as you don’t use it as an historical reference…it’s not a biography it’s only a semi-autobiographical film...at least half of the film was completely untrue and never happened. It should have been told the way it really was which would have been much more respectful to his memory.
Where to start?
None of the countries of the UK were as violently assimilated into it as Ireland was. Most Irish folk felt little to no connection with the UK. Ireland had been poorly treated by the London parliament many times, moreso than any of the other countries.
And above all, it was the will of the Irish people. They had voted for John Redmond, and his party held the balance of power in the Commons.
@wwotin : Collins never liked the terms of the treaty for Ireland to only be a free state with 26 counties. He wanted full Irish independance. He only accepted it to avoid a war with Britain that the IRA couldn't win. He believed it was a step closer to finally gaining complete freedom from the Irish.
There's actually no comments on this video say " oh what a good movie" or anything like that. Everyone's arguing!.. There's plenty of comments being spammed. Can people just shut up and enjoy the video?
Watch out Michael Collins its snape!!!!
The Free State was a Dominion of the Empire.
The British retained the Treaty ports until 1938.
Clark Clifford Then they begged for them back in 1939 as Ireland left the commonwealth.
uma dica pra quem quer conhecer um pouquinho da história da Irlanda.
ótimos atores!
@RichardElden I disagree. The term 'British Empire' is known to have been in use since John Dee, (1527 - c.1609), produced his noted tract on English political and economic expansionism, in 1576. However, it may also be credited to Humphrey Llwyd, who is known to have used it in a similar publication of 1568. In a political sense, it is fitting to hold the date of incorporation as at the Union of 1707, when the colonial interests and assets of England and Scotland were formally merged as one.
Whatever the economical situation is right now, they can make it change, and they have all the tools to do it. Thats how a population learns, grows up and gets better. You dont evolve by being tutored forever.
@skippership7: That making melodramatic movies instead of large verse epics is not the way to make a historical event survive the passing of time; just think of the Iliad.
@seighin93
Alan Rickman happens to look almost exactly like Eamon de Valera. (the eventual Irish Prime Minister)
Muy buena película.
Well, for a modern movie this one is pretty close to a tragedy or an epic tale, would the dialogues be better or at least written in versed poetry (but one can not have everything, can one?). The struggle of Ireland against England for liberty is of course a subject which makes writing a tragic tale quite easily, especially as the Irish has later make a compromise and fell over it apart to a bloody civil war; as always: Art is not as precise as solid history but it grants much more immortality.
The point is that the Free State was part of the Empire rather than the UK, exactly as had been envisaged in 1914.
Clark Clifford But it was going to still be part of the UK home rule was very limited and specified details .Collins got near full Independence.
You need to read up on history mate. The Normans invaded first, but have you never heard of the plantations? And the Pale? And Cromwell.
Home Rule was not "given" by 1914, it had passed the house of commons and had been rejected by the house of lords, which meant it was delayed. When WWI came around and the delay became indefinite, the Irish finally said they'd had enough.
The House of Lords no longer had the power to overrule the Commons following the reforms of 1911.
The Home Rule Bill was passed by Westminster over the objections of Ulster Unionists and received Royal assent on 18th September 1914.
The Irish people wanted a parliament (even though England, Wales and Scotland did not have parliaments), and this was given on 18th September 1914. Unfortunately the failed Easter Risding prevented a democratic transition of power from taking place.
Home Rule was given on 18th September 1914, despite Unionists threatening to start a civil war, and Imperial Germany selling weapons to the IRA and the UVF.
England has never invaded Ireland.
this looks soo sad,i want to see this,4 alan rickman's in it
the main one is Winter Raid i think...they're all by Elliot Goldenthat...
I am related to this man (Collins, not Neeson) and I just wanted to know if this movie is historically accurate and they didn't leave out/oversimplify the life of Collins. This is very important to me.
No, it's a serious question.
There was one parliament for the four countries.
What made Ireland so special that it should have a parliament when England, Wales and Scotland didn't?
Harold Jameson Ireland is Catholic therefore should not be in a anti Catholic UK.
love movie
Great date movie.
@Sewerinho1 no problem i hope you enjoy it as much as I do
@MrRobertJameson Michael Collins in real life was bigger than Liam Neeson, hence why Michael Collins was known as "The Big Fella". See, you learn something knew everyday.
Micheal collins was my grandads stepdad (':
Yeah, I mean only every single general was Irish.
Charles Boycott was one of the greatest Irishmen in history.
Ireland played a huge role in building the Empire. It was called the British Empire because it was governed from the British Isles, of which Ireland was a part.
What oppression?
The idea of the UK began in 1066 with the Norman Conquest.
The south signed its sovereignty away forever to Brussels, and it will have to apply for a second IMF bailout before the end of next year. A Greek default is inevitable, and Portugal, Cyprus, Italy, Spain and maybe even France will also go down.
Ireland was never part of the Empire, although it played a huge role in building it.
Collins achieved nothing that had not already been given in 1914.
Harvey Carter Really the Ulster Scots actually blocked Home Rule that why the Irish hate them vice versa.
yeah thats wat my old teacher told my class i dont know whether it 100 percent true but thats what he said
The strike was in 1974.
I'm doing a research project on the Easter Rising.
I really would like to watch this one in Japanese launguage!!
All of Ireland had been joined with Great Britain since the Act of Union.
It's a fact. There did not need to be any violence at all.
Does anyone know the name of the piano song at the start of this trailer? It's played a few times through the film but I can only find it here. Thanks :)
see a trailer with no words is better bc it dont give the plot away unless you read its origin tale on paper b4hand
I take it from your “rant” that you are also in favour of 3529/4... is that correct?
@olivia15outcast: What means this scene of rude impatience?
most of those guys were English landowners in Ireland, not "Irish" in their sympathies or culture, face it the Britis Empire was controlled by England with limited involvement from Scotland,Wales, and almost no involvement from Ireland
this movie is just as good as braveheart
@CrazyIrishDrunk1 Still waiting, was the question to difficult?
Oh is that right son... well perhaps you could clarify for me the following…1, What year did Eamon Broy actually die? 2, How many pensions did he have and from which governments, 3, Where was G division during that time, 4, Where did Pearse surrender and and what the hell was Markievicz doing there at the time, 5, Where was Harry Boland actually shot, 6, so you think O'Rahilly died for no reason do you?...Me disrespectful?..Well over to you… educate me please!
@MrRobertJameson It was a simple enough question……….. why do you call those involved in the Easter Rising terrorists?
What violin? Sounds like the Uilleann pipes being played by Davy Spillane if I’m not much mistaken.
@HurlingMan09
Winter Raid - Elliot Goldenthal / BSO Michael Collins
G'waaan Michael! My absolute hero.. this movie does annoy me at times though - it's very 'Hollywood'
None of Ireland was "occupied". It was legally joined with Great Britain.
Harvey Carter It was occupied by Ulster Scots and English settlers from the 16th and 17th Century's.
It was the Irish Field Marshal Lord French who executed the leaders of the failed Easter Rising.
Anybody know the name of the music that starts at 0:20?
Okay? What has that got to do with anything?
Your points are still wrong. Home rule had not been given by 1914, and England has invaded Ireland.
By the way, does anyone know the name of the last song?
Look up Sam Boycott, English land owner in the 1880's that managed to tic off his poor Irish Tenant Farmers so much that they refused to speak with him , hence the term Boycott; the Potato Famine; is mostly because of the British ownership and mismanagment of the land; the only influential Irish person during the British Empire was Edmund Burke, the rest were poor farmers
Oh is that right Jack? Well you can’t make a statement like that without backing it up with some facts, so come on… let’s have them?
Julia Roberts tried her best, but didn't get it. Imagine being the American in this movie with all those fine Irishmen, and trying to pull off an Irish accent. They easily could have found a better actress for that role and, with the other respectable names in the cast, the film wouldn't have suffered one bit.
DONT MAKE ME SEND CROMWELL OVER THERE LADS
Cromwell (Shivers)...even the name makes me sick
Fuck up
Don't make us send back his head
+a Alaska Yeah he got blown up by IRA pissed in he dead skull just like all thick ignorant Brits think can rule Ireland force us be Protestant British people never never never will we become British.
+a Alaska Dont make me send over IRA their lads
Who’s we?
Does anyone know the name of the song that starts at 0:20
Ireland had been overrun by hordes of English, led by the most vile of all their race, Churchill the Defiler. The giant Gundabad Englishman had sworn to wipe out the Irish nation. The Irish were leaderless; defeat and death were upon them. That was when they saw Michael Collins; a young Irish leader facing down the dark English. Churchill the Defiler learned that day that the Irish nation would not be so easily broken. The Irish forces rallied and drove the English back.
@RichardElden obviously ur allowed ur own opinion even if its as wrong as that
@XxshughesxX What documentary?
