The Banshees of Inisherin welcomes the audience right from the start, to this breathtaking, remote island. The windswept panoramic views are accompanied by Irish song, and is quickly met with the reality of how isolated this island is. In the background you hear the civil war on the mainland, but the contrast is immediate to a life so close yet so separated.
The casting is superb, with Colin, Brenden and Kerry all giving award worthy performances.
The perfect balance that Martin McDonagh has mastered between shock, heartfelt sadness and comedic relief is perfectly matched and executed my Barry Keoghan. Barry is the glue that holds this film and all of its elements together. His character, Dominic has the elements, but Barry's performance may be one of the greatest of all time.
This must see film has you at the edge of your seat in anticipation with one eye shut, makes you laugh; feel the loneliness that the characters are feeling and the love and heartbreak of both man and beast.
