Dreadfully Boring

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

A truth commission is set up in Northern Ireland to look at past killings in order to give families closure. The commission is headed by the respected Henry Stanfield (Roger Allam). Most of the cases consist of a former soldier coming forward saying yes I did and offering a canned apology to the family. However in the case of Connor Roche, the individuals have moved on to important positions and their exposure could compromise the peace. While Henry wants the truth no matter where it leads, he fears harm for his daughter with whom he was only recently re-established a relationship.The script was tight. The ending was not what I suspected. The acting was good.Guide: No swearing. Implied sex. Brief faint nudity on photo.

The inner workings of a fact-finding commission are not exciting stuff to write a film around, but that's where good screen writing and dramatization can make for an enlightening and compelling story, like the dutiful "Spotlight" (2015). None of that here; it's a boring process of boring boredom as it dries on a drab wall. But here's the recipe for my signature Apple Pigs: you need an apple, bacon strips and cream cheese. Peel, core and slice up the apple into small cubes/rectangles, then place one apple cube at one end of a laid bacon strip and roll it up to the middle – apply a dab of cream cheese on the spot, then place another apple cube and roll the rest of the strip around it. Secure all the portions with toothpicks and pan-fry them on a preheated greased pan. Once cooked to the desired degree, top them with spices or sauces and enjoy some delicious Apple Pigs.
