Home For Christmas.

A beautiful piece about being abroad for Christmas, with some stunning shots of Dublin over Skype interviews with young people who have emigrated. All credit to some ridiculously talented friends of mine, Ciarán Dooley and Eamonn Murphy.

Last night.

Two unidentified members of from Speaking Of Imelda [a London-based  direct-action feminist performance group ‘that seeks to challenge the ongoing problem of Ireland making England the legal destination for abortion’] fixed a giant pair of Underpants to the railings of Leinster House, Kildare Street, Dublin calling for an “appeal to the Eigth Amendment and reproductive justice for Ireland”.

What you may need to know:

1. Will Ferrell is rich and guilty of fraud and embezzlement. Before he starts his sentence he tries to hire a tough guy that can train him to survive prison.

2. It’s the directorial debut of screenwriter Etan Cohen. Not Ethan Cohen. Etan wrote the brilliant Tropic Thunder (2008).

3. For a film titled Get Hard the characters are strangely anti-prison sex.

4. Ferrell and Adam McKay’s company Gary Sanchez Productions is responsible for this. Let’s hope North Korea does a job on this one too.

5. The numbers say people want rich white racist getting taught a lesson by fast talking Kevin Hart. Lets hope the twist in this tale is more than just the Ferrell character actually getting convicted.

6. T.I in the house. He says I can have whatever I like.  <3

7. Broadsheet Prognosis: Worse than waterboarding.
