Saipan 2026. A film loosely based on the conflict between the Republic of Ireland coach, Mike McCarthy (Steve Coogan), and his star player, Roy Keane (Eanna Hardwicke), and Keane's subsequent departure from the Irish squad for the World Cup. To begin with, Hardwicke doesn't resemble Keane at all—she's much taller—but she does capture his arrogance. Coogan isn't an exact copy either, but she does capture his seemingly chaotic approach to player management. Directors: Lisa Barros D'Sa, Glenn Leyburn Writer:: Paul Fraser Stars: Éanna Hardwicke, Steve Coogan, Peter McDonald What I felt while watching the film was the disastrous state of Irish planning. That was the problem: Keane, of Manchester United fame, expected more. I watched The Damned United last week, which deals with the rivalry between Brian Clough and Don Revie.

Facing the Laughter: Minnie Pearl 2023 Movie Review Trailer Cast Crew

Director: Barbara J. Hall
Stars: Bill Anderson, Barbi Benton, Garth Brooks

Facing the Laughter: Minnie Pearl is a comprehensive documentary on the life and work of Sarah Cannon, also known as Minnie Pearl. Sarah was a serious and educated woman who once dreamed of becoming a Shakespearean actress, but she found fame playing a simple country girl who often became the butt of her jokes. Instantly identifiable, even in silhouette, by her straw hat with a price tag dangling from her brim, Minnie Pearl became an icon of country music radio, stage and television. When she greeted the audience, they enthusiastically repeated her signature "Howdee" with a happy roar. While Sarah and Minnie were two sides of the same coin, they share a legacy of compassion, empowerment, and humor.


It was a dichotomy: Sarah was educated, serious, intelligent, eloquent, ambitious, and untraditional in many ways. Minnie was simple, direct, playful, and quite traditional. A young woman from a small town in Tennessee with big dreams of being a Shakespearean actress on the world stage was more like wishful thinking in the 1930s. But she made it on the world stage, with her recognizable costume and the same line of opening that never got tedious. The legacy she left behind was one of compassion, empowerment, and innovation. But she most of all she made us laugh. This is her story... simple, yet complicated. A permanent fixture in country music, but music was clearly not her gift.
