FunTranscript
00:00:26I am a man of the north.
00:00:30Names like Alta Muscle, Six Mile Cross and Baligali roll off my tongue like water over a mill wheel.
00:00:39I am made of rain, nettles and thick moss, trees and wind.
00:00:46I am stories, handed down like heirlooms, Cucullin, Anya, Maeve.
00:00:55War, church, famine, fairies.
00:01:07I could be an Irishman anywhere in the world.
00:01:13But somehow I have been delivered back to this place.
00:01:19Home.
00:01:24Home.
00:01:25What does it mean?
00:01:29Home.
00:01:30Home.
00:01:32Home.
00:01:40Home.
00:01:42Home.
00:01:48Home.
00:01:49I don't know.
00:02:20I don't know.
00:03:08Do you remember who used to live here?
00:03:12It's old Mrs Rogers' house, isn't it?
00:03:14It was.
00:03:15That is a doornail a while ago.
00:03:18But don't worry, I checked the place for ghosts.
00:03:27Come on, let's get you settled.
00:03:43There's not much in here, as you can see, but I stuffed off earlier.
00:03:47I've got a few of the basics.
00:03:49Tea bags, milk, sugar, bread, peanut butter.
00:03:53There's a kettle.
00:03:56Do you want me to light a bit of a fire for you?
00:03:58No.
00:04:00You know where to find me, okay?
00:04:10St Anthony and St Jude are a big help to me.
00:04:18I do not know.
00:04:19I do not know.
00:04:19I do not know.
00:04:25I do not know.
00:04:27You say you to this morning?
00:04:28I do not know.
00:04:30We do not know.
00:04:32You say you to the family, right?
00:04:35I do not know.
00:04:43You say you are the light.
00:05:25Dear God, Matt, look at yourself.
00:05:30What is going on with you?
00:05:34You're a great writer, Matt.
00:05:37Or at least you were.
00:05:39But that was ten years ago.
00:05:42Ten years are not even an essay or a review.
00:05:48You're a writer.
00:05:49Writers write.
00:05:50That's what they do.
00:05:53You need to stop running.
00:05:57When was the last time you were back in Ireland?
00:06:02Ten?
00:06:03Twenty years ago?
00:06:05Twenty-six.
00:06:06Twenty-six years.
00:06:10Whoa.
00:06:14What the fuck did they do to you back there?

00:06:52I don't know.
00:07:33When I was a boy, my best friend Declan and I built a dam to mark the beginning of summer.
00:07:40Every year we went to the same bend in the river at the bottom of Paggy McKenna's Meadow.
00:07:47There was a spot there right next to an old apple orchard where the river yawned against a deep mossy
00:07:54bank, creating a wide crescentular well that was just perfect for a swimming hole.
00:08:01We'd strip down to our shorts and wade into the river, dragging big clots of mucky sod that we'd dug
00:08:08from the bank, slapping them down in a row on the riverbed, embracing them with large stones and thick stubby
00:08:17branches.
00:08:18The water rising about our ankles, until at last we could take a run from the field and leap, knowing
00:08:28it was deep enough to catch us when we fell.
00:08:48To theuseum to the K bottom, the water rising above the riverbed aповerta...
00:08:56The water rising above the riverbed...
00:09:04istnderent, and the water eskipadish is if you didn't come these days after receiving months.
00:09:06cancellations時
00:09:12Oh, my God.
00:09:38Oh, my God.
00:10:33Oh, my God.
00:10:43Oh, my God.
00:11:06A lovely fur coat he was wearing, too, I can tell you. Fox, I think it was.
00:11:12I don't understand. Was it a man or a woman?
00:11:14Oh, for God's sake.
00:11:15It was a man, as far as I can tell, wearing a fur coat and a headscarf of an indeterminate
00:11:21fabric.
00:11:22We exchanged pleasantries and I went on my way. Simple as that.
00:11:25I'm not about to cast aspersions on his or her or its gender. It's no business of mine, and nor
00:11:31should it be any of yours.
00:11:32Morning, Joe.
00:11:33Good morning, Kate.
00:11:34What's all the excitement this morning?
00:11:36Seems Pat had a bit of a fright this morning.
00:11:38Pat's only after seeing some stranger coming out of old Mrs. Rogers' turf shed like a ghost.
00:11:43Scared the life out of him.
00:11:45He was wearing a fur coat and a fur scarf.
00:11:49Anyway, I want to head on home here. I'll need to lay down for a bit.
00:11:55Two stamps, please, Joe. And if you would, put those in the box for me.
00:12:00Surely.
00:12:01Big day, Pat.
00:12:03Oh, no. Nothing new to me. Sure, if we were in New York, nobody'd pass a bit remarks.
00:12:08Was he good looking?
00:12:09Sure, don't you know him.
00:12:10Me? How would I know him?
00:12:11Father Donnelly's brother. The lad that went away to America about 25 years ago. The writer.
00:12:17Sure wasn't a neighbour of yours. Matt, I think his name was.
00:12:23Will that be everything for today, Katie?
00:12:26Katie?
00:12:29Yes, Joe. Thank you.
00:12:33Yes, uh...
00:12:34You all the best.
00:12:35You all the best, Katie.
00:12:53What?
00:12:56What?
00:12:59Oh.
00:13:04Oh.
00:13:12Oh.
00:13:15He must have felt.
00:13:15Oh.
00:13:16Yes, Joe.
00:13:17pamię lingering.
00:13:17Yes, sir.
00:13:22Hi.
00:13:22Yes, Joe.
00:13:50So, let's go.
00:14:14I see we still don't manage to get them bastards out.
00:14:27Jerry, could you slow down about that?
00:14:33Jerry, please!
00:14:35Jesus Christ!
00:14:40Who the fuck was that with Father Donnelly?
00:14:44He looked a bit like Matt.
00:14:47When did that fucker get back here?
00:14:55Hey, come on, we've got into the cross for a pint.
00:15:00You better not think he's moving back home around here.
00:15:04I can tell you that.
00:15:05I can tell you that.
00:15:43You.
00:15:44Donnelly.
00:15:45Who told you to sit down?
00:15:47Stand up.
00:15:47Come on.
00:15:57Come on.
00:15:59Come on.
00:16:00Come on.
00:16:04Come on.
00:16:09There we go.
00:16:10Come on.
00:16:10Come on.
00:16:11Come on.
00:16:11Come on.
00:16:12Come on.
00:16:31All right.
00:16:32Ha...
00:16:37So, I love it.
00:16:40I love it.
00:16:43I love it.
00:16:47I love it, too.
00:16:53I love it.
00:16:55I love it.
00:16:57I love it.
00:17:31All right, there we go.
00:18:27All right, there we go.
00:18:47All right, there we go.
00:18:58All right, there we go.
00:19:28That's terrible.
00:19:29I'll just get back.
00:19:30It's been weird.
00:19:33Oh, are you away?
00:19:37How are you getting on at the cottage on your own?
00:19:43How do you know where I'm staying?
00:19:45You have been away too long.
00:19:47If you think a yank can't land back here without everybody for a 20-mile radius, I've got an opinion
00:19:50about it.
00:19:52The mailman?
00:19:54I was in the post office yesterday when he'd come in.
00:19:56He looked like he'd seen a ghost.
00:19:58I'm just glad to see you're not doing your shopping in a skirt and a pair of high heels.
00:20:03It was cold.
00:20:05I didn't have a jacket.
00:20:07You don't have to convince me you're not gay.
00:20:09I remember.
00:20:15You two know each other?
00:20:20Declan.
00:20:38I'm sorry I missed your call.
00:20:41I'm sorry I missed your call.
00:20:45Please leave a message after the beeper.
00:20:47At the tone, please record your message.
00:20:50When you have finished recording, you may hang up or press 1 for more options.
00:20:54You may hang up or press 1 for more options.
00:21:43It's been a while since you've been in one of these, I suppose.
00:21:4725 years.
00:21:48Give or take a wedding or two.
00:21:50Did we scare you that badly?
00:21:53I never much believed in fairy tales.
00:21:57That's not true.
00:21:59I remember when you were little.
00:22:01You believed in all kinds of magic.
00:22:07Then I grew up.
00:22:09That was a pity.
00:22:11It is a pity.
00:22:15I saw Katie at the store.
00:22:18A wee word of advice, my American brother.
00:22:21Stay clear of Katie.
00:22:23And a further piece of advice.
00:22:26Stay well clear of Declan Hughes.
00:22:28He's a dangerous man, Matt.
00:22:30Beatty's in here every Sunday on his knees with his tongue out waiting for the sacrament.
00:22:34I'm not in New York now, Matt.
00:22:36People around here have a way of doing things.
00:22:42Come on.
00:22:44Come up here.
00:22:48Come on.
00:22:49Come on.
00:22:50Come on.
00:22:53Come on.
00:22:54Come on.
00:22:56Come on.
00:23:33I can see you now, pig in the white flapping sheets in the breeze, and in the scullery.
00:23:42Your hands in a bowl of dough kneading, a trace of flour in your hair in the gauge.
00:23:50It was said you made the best loaf of bread in all of Elder Mosque, folded secrets into
00:23:57the dough, fed them to us.
00:24:04Pain, love, loss.
00:24:11The flour of all that went unsaid, dissolved in the tongue like a mystery, bloomed in my
00:24:19heart like a rose.
00:24:22What madness drove you to the river?
00:24:25What might I have done to save you from that cold, wet grave?
00:24:30Mother, I am so sorry I didn't come home.
00:24:37I am so sorry.
00:24:44I am so sorry.
00:24:46I am so sorry.
00:25:05You have got to get your head out of the clouds with this cloud.
00:25:09Jesus, sure you walked out in here 20 years ago.
00:25:1226.
00:25:1326 years ago.
00:25:16Seriously.
00:25:18Was he that good in the sack?
00:25:19Mikey.
00:25:21I loved him.
00:25:25He's a fantasy, for God's sake.
00:25:28Would you rather have stayed with Declan?
00:25:31I'd rather you stay alive.
00:25:35Do you seriously think Declan Hughes is going to sit back and let you walk off into the sunset with
00:25:42this loser?
00:25:50Two packs of cigarettes, please.
00:25:51Yep. What kind would you like?
00:25:54It does a banner.
00:25:58What's the damage?
00:26:01That's 24-70, please. Are you American?
00:26:04Almost. 24-70? Wow. How you haven't gone too long?
00:26:11What part were you in, New York?
00:26:13How'd you guess?
00:26:14You sure don't look like no hick.
00:26:18Very good.
00:26:19That's where I'm headed as soon as I get my act together.
00:26:21What, you don't like it here?
00:26:24This hole?
00:26:25Surely it can't be that bad.
00:26:27Tell you what.
00:26:28Why don't you take my job in here, and I go out to your cottage and do your writing for
00:26:32you.
00:26:32How does that sound?
00:26:33Wow.
00:26:35Word does travel fast around here.
00:26:37And I heard about those women's clothes bit, too.
00:26:39Pretty sure you've got a damn good excuse for that outfit.
00:26:42I do.
00:26:42It's called cold.
00:26:45Well, if you ever need warming up.
00:27:37It's called cold, and it's like marble by the sea.
00:27:42My heart is older than the cold.
00:27:45I have a flash of summer in the sun.
00:27:48If you see me coming, you would better run, run, run.
00:27:53Jesus!
00:27:54Jerry, you scared the shite out of me.
00:27:58I'm very good.
00:28:00What are you doing, checking up on me?
00:28:02Well, the last person living in this house had to be carried out feet first.
00:28:06I'm taking no chances.
00:28:08Here.
00:28:09What's this?
00:28:10It's an old photo album.
00:28:11It was a mother's.
00:28:12You should have it.
00:28:14The other one I wanted to rummage through the past.
00:28:17There's some of it there.
00:28:26What would you call this?
00:28:28Trouble.
00:28:37Trouble.
00:28:38Lovely to see you.
00:28:41It's a fine day.
00:28:42Yeah, it is.
00:28:43It's a lovely day.
00:28:45It would be nice to see a bit of sun.
00:28:46It would be great to see the bit of sun.
00:28:48Great.
00:28:50Break the clouds.
00:28:51It would be nice.
00:28:53Yeah.
00:28:54Nice.
00:28:56Right, well, I'll be off.
00:28:58I have things to do.
00:28:59Good to see you.
00:29:00I'm not interrupting anything.
00:29:01Oh, no, not at all.
00:29:02I was just on my way anyway.
00:29:04I have to see a man about a dog.
00:29:07Jesus, my timing's impeccable.
00:29:09What must he think of me, showing up here like this?
00:29:11I'll look at the bright side.
00:29:13He'll never tell a soul.
00:29:14I hope not.
00:29:15Declan would kill me if he knew I was here.
00:29:16I was just bringing you a bit of food.
00:29:18Thanks.
00:29:20Tea.
00:29:21Hmm?
00:29:22Tea.
00:29:23We still do that in this country, don't we?
00:29:26Make the visitor a cup of tea.
00:29:42She kept a tidy wee house.
00:29:45She did.
00:29:46She did keep a tidy wee house.
00:29:49But it's strange.
00:29:52Everything's still in the same place.
00:29:54It's like I've landed back in the past.
00:30:03And are you back?
00:30:07Or are you just on a flying visit?
00:30:12I don't think I could make it around here anymore.
00:30:16You've been Americanised.
00:30:19Well, it has been my home for over 20 years.
00:30:38I'm sorry.
00:30:40Don't.
00:30:41Please.
00:30:42Don't.
00:30:43I should have written to you.
00:30:46You have nothing to apologise for.
00:30:49It was a long time ago.
00:30:51We were just kids, for God's sake.
00:30:55I think that...
00:30:59you should have this back.
00:31:10Look, when I got there...
00:31:13It's hard to explain.
00:31:14I mean, it was crazy.
00:31:16Right from the moment the lads collected me from the airport.
00:31:20And then it all comes at you so fast.
00:31:23The newness.
00:31:25A month has gone by and...
00:31:26and then two months.
00:31:30Then, in the blink of an eye,
00:31:32a year's gone by.
00:31:35I see the Statue of Liberty one morning
00:31:37through the window of the van on my way to work.
00:31:41And I remember how much you wanted to see it.
00:31:46Nearly fucking killed me.
00:31:51Not enough for you to write to me even then.
00:31:55To worry about it, I saw it.
00:31:57Wasn't that impressed as it happens?
00:32:04I have to go.
00:32:23Look what you thought...
00:32:30I was off to her head when I was off.
00:32:30A lie.
00:32:31It's a while...
00:32:36It's really hard when I was away.
00:32:37I kill, but...
00:32:42Then I'm the figure of a shield...
00:32:44Which may be a bugger?
00:32:44I ants?
00:32:52Which may mean...
00:32:53It may be abandoned!
00:32:53You can have to explain.
00:32:53But, the time...
00:33:04you broke a mother's heart when you left you know she idolized you that woman her son the writer
00:33:16wow and that was a story she could take to the shop every day
00:33:24not saying you killed her didn't she had health issues in the end
00:33:36depression terrible terrible depression god love her but you didn't fucking help it matt
00:33:43you didn't fucking help it one bit

00:34:01I don't know.
00:34:31I don't know.
00:35:10I don't know.
00:35:56I don't know.
00:36:00I don't know.
00:36:34I don't know.
00:36:57The old country's gone mad if you ask me.
00:37:00They've disappeared.
00:37:02They're all indoors now.
00:37:03Lost in their own little screens.
00:37:06You never see a child outside anymore.
00:37:09They wouldn't know their way down to the river if you let them by the ear.
00:37:15I have one wee word of advice for you, though.
00:37:19Watch that girl's husband doesn't catch her up here sniffing around your undergarments while he's out at work.
00:37:24I don't know how you operate these things over there in a Mary Kay.
00:37:28But around here you mess with a man like Declan Hughes.
00:37:32You better brace yourself for a storm.
00:37:35There's skeletons out here in these fields, you know.
00:37:40Skeletons of men every bit as smart as you or me.
00:37:44Men who didn't see the storm coming.
00:37:49Well, that's changed since I've been gone.
00:37:52At least there's peace now that the troubles have ended.
00:37:55Peace me home.
00:37:57Where do you eat that shade?
00:37:59The trouble's not over in this country, boy.
00:38:02Not as long as there's still an English man wearing a uniform.
00:38:05Don't kid yourself about that.
00:38:14We are opposed to a united Ireland.
00:38:17We will not have a united Ireland.
00:38:22And I say to the Dublin government,
00:38:24if they don't behave themselves in the south,
00:38:29it will be shot across the border.
00:38:45It'll never be over.
00:38:47Not unless all one country again,
00:38:50the way the good Lord intended it.
00:38:52North to south, east to west,
00:38:54sea to Cheyneyn and sea.
00:38:57If it was up to me,
00:38:58there wouldn't even be a wall or a fence on it.
00:39:27Don't touch your suffering.
00:39:30I don't have to go.
00:39:37If it was to college,
00:39:51there would have to walk around.
00:40:05By God, it's some country to look at just the same.
00:40:09When you take a moment to lift your head to see past the mess we've made of it.
00:40:30To be continued...
00:41:15Oh, so you are alive.
00:41:17Your son cried himself to sleep again last night.
00:41:20What do you want me to tell him?
00:41:21That you're in Ireland writing or thinking?
00:41:25Is that what you're doing?
00:41:26You're thinking?
00:41:29I'm sorry, Sarah.
00:41:32You're right.
00:41:34Lucas!
00:41:35Sarah?
00:41:36I've got to go.
00:41:37I cannot do this right now.
00:42:04What the fuck did they do to you back there?
00:42:24You broke our mother's heart when you left, you know?
00:42:34It was a long time ago.
00:42:36We were just kids for God's sake.
00:42:43There's skeletons out here in these fields, you know.
00:42:48Skeletons of men every bit as smart as you or me.
00:42:55You know, he knew your children would want to shame.
00:43:20I'll just give a minute in part 2 o'clock in the morning.
00:43:35You okay?
00:43:37Katie?
00:43:40Katie, what are you doing here?
00:43:42Well, I was just driving past and I saw the car.
00:43:46I did call your name.
00:43:52You.
00:44:00I waited for you, you know.
00:44:05Heartbroken.
00:44:08Everybody talk behind my back.
00:44:12Poor wee girl.
00:44:14Left behind like that.
00:44:16They all said you were no good.
00:44:19But I defended you.
00:44:22Every chance I got, I defended you.
00:44:27He waited.
00:44:29I waited.
00:44:32Every day.
00:44:34Two.
00:44:35Oh.
00:44:36Years.
00:44:37Like a dog.
00:44:39With a postman.
00:44:42I waited.
00:44:48You shouldn't be here, Katie.
00:44:50You should go.
00:44:57Maybe you should go.
00:45:01Go back to America before something bad happens.
00:45:04Fine, I'll leave.
00:45:05Yes, you leave.
00:45:08Go.
00:45:09Go back to America.

00:51:38Cinder's Landing.

00:53:02Do you ever feel that time is on your side?
00:53:08Giving you space to learn and places to hide
00:53:14Use your time wisely, never say goodbye
00:53:19Cause we will always meet again on the other side
00:53:24So please tell me something I don't already know
00:53:30Please take me far away to a place I do not know
00:53:34Half the bloody parish is here

00:53:39We could charge for the wine
00:53:41Wallaby, I'll have a pint
00:53:48Something I don't already know
00:53:52Please take me far away to a place I do not know
00:53:57Allow me to...
00:53:59What'll it be?
00:54:01Two pints, please
00:54:02Two pints?
00:54:03God, a Shakespeare
00:54:04To stay my ground and sing my song
00:54:07To look around
00:54:09To stay my ground and sing my
00:54:12Soul
00:54:30Listen
00:54:32I'd like to propose a toast
00:54:34To my wee brother Matt, the writer
00:54:37To his new book
00:54:39And to a safe return to his family in America
00:54:43To your new book
00:54:50You late for an appointment?
00:54:53What do you not think about writing one about growing up in Tyrone?
00:54:57Like that, um, what was that called?
00:55:00Angela's Ashes
00:55:02Yeah, Matt
00:55:03Why didn't you write us a story about your miserable Northern Ireland childhood?
00:55:08Start with the terrible baiting you tuck in primary school
00:55:12That's a good one
00:55:15You beat me unconscious in a room full of kids?
00:55:23So, who can tell me something about France?
00:55:31You, Donnelly, stand up
00:55:35What's the first thing that pops into your head when I say France?
00:55:41Onions
00:55:48What can God's name make you think of onions?
00:55:52I've seen it in the television, sir
00:55:59You saw onions on the television?
00:56:02It was a cartoon
00:56:04About France
00:56:05The man had onions around his neck
00:56:10Garlic
00:56:11He had a string of garlic
00:56:13Around his neck
00:56:15Is that what you saw?
00:56:17I suppose so, sir
00:56:19Stop, Muggle
00:56:20Speak up
00:56:22Yes
00:56:23Garlic
00:56:25Don't you shout at me
00:56:29You, you, you yell at me
00:56:30And my captain
00:56:32Stop, leave him alone
00:56:34Kenny Corrigan, get back to your seat
00:56:36Leave him alone
00:56:37Get back to your seat, Kenny Corrigan
00:56:40Leave him alone
00:56:41Get back to your seat
00:56:42He told me

00:56:47I'm rest
00:56:53You're looking at me
00:57:01You're looking
00:57:09Why'd I
00:57:13This is not over asshole
00:58:01It's my sweet house
00:58:03Jesus, what are you doing here?
00:58:04Don't be mad at me, Maddie
00:58:05You're in my fucking house
00:58:06No, Maddie
00:58:07I'm your friend, Maddie
00:58:08Maddie, no, no
00:58:10Maddie
00:58:13What are you doing here, Potty?
00:58:15I heard you're telling stories, Maddie
00:58:20That's cool
00:58:23Hey, hey, hey
00:58:25Hey, you remember that time
00:58:27In Owen Cuny's class
00:58:28When we got beat up
00:58:32I remember
00:58:34Potty said, Potty said you
00:58:37No, I remember
00:58:38It was Katie, save me
00:58:39No, no, Potty said you
00:58:43Potty said you
00:58:451981, August 26th
00:58:492pm
00:58:50I had a blue shirt on me
00:58:52You remember your blue shirt, Maddie?
00:58:54You remember your blue shirt?
00:58:57I remember
00:59:05Oh, it's the priest
00:59:10Money
00:59:12That comes mad at you, money
00:59:15That one's very mad at you
00:59:26Oh, it's raining
00:59:36Looked you
00:59:37Come back at me
00:59:40What are you doing?
00:59:40Good day
00:59:41Another person
00:59:41with writing
00:59:41Vert
00:59:41No, let No
00:59:41To stay
00:59:41Oh, I'm 거기
00:59:47And there
00:59:47How do you want?
00:59:49Borrowed some sugar.
00:59:53Are you alright, Matt? Look at the state of you.
00:59:56I'm trying to write.
00:59:59This place smells like a bloody brewery.
01:00:02Don't come on here to lecture me, Gerry!
01:00:05Or what? You'll run away again?
01:00:09I doesn't run away!
01:00:13For a writer, you're not too fond of hearing the truth, Matty.
01:00:19And for God's sake, will you tidy this place up a bit?
01:00:22Your mother didn't raise you to be a tramp.
01:00:46I have been torn in two over the Atlantic.
01:00:51An Irishman in America, an American in Ireland.
01:00:56Betrayed by a brogue on one side, eternal optimism on the other.
01:01:03I am native in neither, easily silenced both here and there.
01:01:09I live now in the parish of memory.
01:01:13Create castles out of my childhood.
01:01:16Fly my Yankee tinge brogue as my flag.
01:01:21I have become one of the ghost Irish.
01:01:24Those who moved away.
01:01:27Those with a heart that will never be fully at rest.
01:01:56Jesus!
01:01:57Jesus, what are you doing here?
01:02:05Aye, Jesus, it must be nice being you.
01:02:09Mr fucking cool, breezing in and out of people's lives.
01:02:14Taking what you want, when you want it.
01:02:19What the fuck are you doing here, Declan?
01:02:22You can't do this.
01:02:24You can't go around with a gun in your hand bullying people.
01:02:27In the fucking 1970s.
01:02:29Well that's where you're wrong, asshole.
01:02:31Because as far as I'm concerned, I can do whatever I like here.
01:02:35I earned my right to stay in this country.
01:02:37I stayed and I fought.
01:02:39And what did you do?
01:02:41You ran away till America and you left the fighting to the real men.
01:02:45Please, please Declan.
01:02:48You don't think I wanted to run?
01:02:51You don't think that I wanted to escape?
01:02:58You don't deserve to live here.
01:03:02And you don't deserve Katie.
01:03:06Go home, Yank.
01:03:07No, thank you.
01:03:10Safety.
01:03:18I don't know.
01:03:48I don't know.
01:04:10I don't know.
01:04:46I don't know.
01:05:02Don't start.
01:05:04Lord.
01:05:05I need you to come with me.
01:05:09Where are we going?
01:05:11You'll find out when we get there.
01:05:15Come on.
01:05:16Come on.
01:05:17Let's go.
01:05:18Let's go.
01:05:18Let's go.

01:07:24Let's go.
01:07:27Let's go.
01:07:28Let's go.
01:07:36Let's go.
01:07:42Let's go.
01:07:45Let's go.
01:07:46Let's go.
01:07:46Let's go.
01:07:46Let's go.
01:07:49Let's go.
01:07:50Let's go.
01:07:51Let's go.
01:07:51Let's go.
01:07:52Let's go.
01:07:53Let's go.
01:07:53Let's go.
01:07:57Who told you to sit down? On your feet.
01:08:29Can I clean? No, no, no, no. She went downstairs. You're okay.
01:08:44Donnelly. Donnelly. Good boy.
01:08:51You're a good boy. You're a good boy.
01:08:56I've carried you around with me my whole life.
01:09:03Now look at you. Not much to look at now.
01:09:12Age. They don't teach you that at school.
01:09:18They should do.
01:09:2392 years on this planet.
01:09:28And the only thing I've learned with complete certainty is
01:09:36you grow old when you die.
01:09:46I... I... I... I did my best.
01:09:56You wrote a book. I read it. You did. You were all proud of you. I was proud of you.
01:10:09And you will write another book.
01:10:13I don't think I've got another one on me.
01:10:17You will write. You'll write.
01:10:44Home. Home.
01:10:51Seen from the window of a plain, she is a patchwork quilt.
01:10:55Little square fields of green stitched together by thin rows of thorns.
01:11:01Spring green, fern green, forest green, pine, sea and shamrock green.
01:11:11From above, she is clean, mystical, magical to behold.
01:11:17That is her first great act of deceit.
01:11:20Her lush, rolling beauty, the first betrayal of her truth.
01:11:26For on the ground, and deeper still, buried beneath that vernet lawn, is her pain.
01:11:35Underneath, there is blood.
01:11:41What price had the past exacted on each of us?
01:11:46Mother. Cooney. Katie. Dickman.
01:11:55Where have you been all evening?
01:12:00No, no, don't.
01:12:05Look.
01:12:08They're daffodils.
01:12:12You used to love daffodils.
01:12:15Remember?
01:12:21Please don't leave me.
01:13:10What did any of it mean?
01:13:13Catholic.
01:13:15Protestant.
01:13:16Irish.
01:13:18English.
01:13:20Words designated to keep us apart.
01:13:24Words with borders all their own.
01:13:28Each one of us armed and insulated with a version of the past we deemed to be true.
01:13:34Holding each other at harm's length over a flag or some unresolved hurt.
01:13:43How many lives is a field worth?
01:13:49No one escaped the wound. Each of us carry a scar.
01:13:57Declan had chosen the gun.
01:13:59I must honor this pen.
01:14:03Invite small miracles into the incubator of my heart.
01:14:08Come home to the poetry of myself.
01:14:13It was time for me to let go of the past.
01:14:17Of the wreckage I'd been wearing like a suit of armor.
01:14:22I too had lost sight of what was in front of me.
01:14:27Family.
01:14:29Friends.
01:14:31Forests and fern.
01:14:33Daffodils and birdsong.
01:14:36Rivers and fields.
01:14:39Nettle, rose and thorn hedge.
01:14:43Fog and foxtrot.
01:14:45Mountains, moss and meadows.
01:14:49A heart haunted by the ghosts of poets and rebels.
01:14:53Sir, I love you.
01:14:56Give Lucas a hug for me.
01:15:01I'm coming.
01:15:04I'm coming home.
01:15:05I am coming home.
01:15:06I am coming home.
01:15:19Is it going home I mean -"
01:15:48The wild richness of this place.
01:15:53Here was a stranger's smile, there a small act of kindness or decency.
01:16:01This was not the north, south, east or west.
01:16:07The land was the land wherever you happened to stand on it.
01:16:23The land was the land where the land was the land.
01:16:52If only you could lift your head to see past the mess we'd made of it.
01:17:08It was time to stop running.
01:17:11It was time to go home.
01:17:50You might feel you on the other side.
01:19:22And the bracket is gold in the sun
01:19:30And the cares of tomorrow
01:19:34Must wait till this day is done
01:19:42Come by the hills to the land
01:19:48Where life is a song
01:19:53And stand where the birds fill the air
01:19:59With their joys all day long
01:20:04Where the trees sway in time
01:20:09And even the wind sings in tune
01:20:16And the cares of tomorrow
01:20:21Must wait till this day is done
01:20:26May the hills to the wind
01:20:33To the cloud
01:20:34To the forest
01:20:38Then the birds fill the air
01:21:16Come by the hills to the land where legends remain. Where lorries of old fill the hearts and may yet
01:21:35come again.
01:21:38Where the past has been lost and the future has still to be won. And the cares of tomorrow
01:21:54Must wait till this day is done.
