On March 18, the PFS continues a St. Patrick’s Day tradition: showing an Irish-made feature film that is essentially unknown in the USA, but which enjoys a strong cult following in the U.K. and Europe. They used to call this event a “Mystery Irish Cult Film,” but in all honesty, most folks understandably assumed that meant the film itself was a “mystery film,” when in reality, it was simply the exact title that was a mystery to the public.
So now they’re calling this event a “Surprise Irish Cult Film.” Hopefully that can help avoid any unnecessary confusion. It can be revealed that this dramedy was released almost 20 years ago, is set in Dublin, boasts a killer ensemble cast and won a handful of prestigious awards at International Film Festivals. Movie lovers are encouraged to take a chance, buy a ticket and be pleasantly surprised. 8 p.m. showtime, and, as with all PFS events at the Bean, there’s a full vegetarian and vegan menu available and discounts on craft beer and organic wine during the films.
