TAILIEUCHUNG - Between Irish National Cinema and Hollywood: Neil Jordan’s Michael Collins

This is a moment when an older fascination with looking (at the mother's face, for an obvious example) collides with the initial inklings of self-awareness. Hence it is the birth of the long love affair/despair between image and self-image which has found such intensity of expression in film and such joyous recognition in the cinema audience.

Despite the Hollywood mode the fact remains that Michael Collins is a national film text and Jordan does not make too many concessions to the non-Irish audiences. Key Words.
