Black '47

Kauai, how can this be described as an Irish Ranger leaving his post! This film is about the systematic cruelty and near decimation of the Irish following the seizure of property and refusal of shelter and food. The "taking of the soup" featured was the English leverage of starvation over the Irish. This film shows in uncomfortable terms why the English should be ashamed of their history in Ireland beyond the Pale. And look up Beyond the Pale to get a bit more context. So come March and Paddy's Day when you're all feeling a bit Irish, remember the most forgiving nation on the planet.
