Centering on the reminiscences of Rose McNulty, a woman who has spent over fifty years in state institutions, The Secret Scripture is a deeply moving story of love lost and redeemed, against the backdrop of an emerging Irish state in which female sexuality and independence unsettles the colluding patriarchies of church and nationalist politics. Demonstrating Sheridan’s trademark skill with actors, his profound sense of story, and depth of feeling for Irish social history, The Secret Scripture marks a return to personal themes for the writer-director as well as a reunion with producer Noel Pearson, almost a quarter of a century after their breakout success with My Left Foot.

Authors bring to life relatable characters that become symbols and icons for readers because they embody the fierce prowess, determination and strength of a hero, in a time when society lacks individuals with the energetic force of a hero. Stieg Larsson’s Lisbeth Salander is a non-hetero-normative empowered female character that breaks the gender roles and stereotypes that are generally placed upon female characters and women in society.

  • A Quiet Passion Terence Davies, a Writer/Director of Sober Taste And
    A Quiet Passion Terence Davies, a writer/director of sober taste and refinement (“The Deep Blue Sea,” “The House of Mirth”) who takes literature seriously, examines the sheltered, mysterious, yet vibrant life of Emily Dickinson in “A Quiet Passion,” trying to bridge the gap between the uneventful domestic life of the woman who became a recluse and the inward fervor of the poet. He chooses a highly stylized manner to tell his chronicle of the Amherst maid, and his effort results in hits and misses. The staging of “A Quiet Passion” seems perfectly appropriate (the film did exteriors in Amherst and interiors in Belgium). It is sedate and often striking: most scenes show a fixed camera view of a Victorian interior framed by doorways wherein the protagonists deliver their ever-articulate lines, usually with a minimum of invisible cuts. Occasionally, these stagings are intermingled with a leisurely 360-degree pan. Such straight-on filming can prove wonderful, such as a tour-de-force time lapse of the Dickinson family as each individual morphs into their characters 20 years later. But that fixed stare can also make Emily’s periodic torments (from symptom’s of Bright’s disease) excruciating to watch. Whether Cynthia Nixon’s writhing in these scenes, as the fevered Emily, shows good acting or just gratuitous voyeurism is up to the viewer to decide. Davies makes another decision on staging which is problematic. As Emily’s woes increase, with the loss of family members and the progression of her diseases, the film becomes as reclusive as the poet, where she decides to confine herself to her bedroom and wear only a white shift.
