Quirke (2013)
Trash.

We're meant to identify, or at least sympathize, with the careless active alcoholic and his personal crusade that nobody asked for and which helps no one as he gets to play the fun uncle to his own unaware daughter that he allowed more responsible members of his family to raise. His demons, which aren't all that demonic really, are meant to make him appear deep and mysterious. There's a creepy rapist baby killer. Some corrupt rich people. Oh look, an evil nun. It's as if this Irish writer hates the Irish. Or maybe just the past. There's no humor. Zero charm. Just grim drinking, smoking and brooding.
