Niamh G @NiamhGillespie 17h I kind of like films like 'An Irish Angel'. Coming of age, teenage dramas where the characters have infinite charm and deal with things we all remember fondly (or not so) from our adolescence. Even though I was never a rebellious teenage girl at a catholic school in Portrush, Northern Ireland, I still found myself relating to this quirky movie. An Irish Angel captures the essence of what it's like to be a teenager. And while Niamh James 'Aine' and Amanda Doherty 'Margaret' really shine, each cast member adds something to the film, especially the seasoned Jaime Winstone 'Ellie' who hasn't been on this kind of form since her debut in Kidulthood. I would describe 'An Irish Angel' as a solid, well made, well acted film with wonderful performances from the cast, there's a lot to love about An Irish Angel.

But as smartly written and directed by Danny Patrick the sum of these singularly familiar parts combine to take us to a place well beyond where we typically go with such fare. Taking the helm Patrick weaves an uncommonly engaging story. Deftly mixing healthy hits of both laughter and tears, he guides us on a journey every bit as eccentric as it is stirring. Not every movie has to have an enduring message. Still, "An Irish Angel" struck me with this one. The more we may try to distance ourselves from that which has come to define us, the more we are drawn ever nearer to it. And to appreciate the hell out of it.
