Scenario

Spanning four tumultuous decades during The Troubles in Northern Ireland

The real-life Dolours Price was married for two decades (1983-2003) to Irish actor Stephen Rea.

During this time, Rea appeared in the film for which he is probably best known in the US: the 1992 romantic thriller The Crying Game

In that film, Rea plays Fergus, a very reluctant and ambiguous member of the Irish Republican Army (IRA), the same organization that Price was associated with for many years.

Really well acted across the ages of the main characters

I highly recommend reading the book for additional context/information, but the series does a fantastic job of covering the material.

Overall, an incredibly well-executed miniseries

The bigger themes for me are: – in war, everyone thinks they’re on the right side – how far will you go to achieve a cause you believe in and what happens when that belief is tested or weakened – the self-sacrificing foot soldiers who bear the most risk are usually easily dismissed – the greater "code" of silence in communities sometimes goes too far – the spoils of war often go to bureaucrats, not soldiers.

Hulu has a lot to love this month – enjoy brand new series premieres and favorite movies to watch at home
