Lady Betty

About This Movie

Lady Betty is an interesting little piece of animation that weaves together a historical narrative with a touch of folklore. The story unfolds in a pub, where two friends are deep in conversation, sharing pints and tales from the past. It creates this cozy yet eerie atmosphere, especially as they delve into the life of Lady Betty, the first woman executed in Ireland. The pacing is a bit leisurely, but it allows the story to steep like a good brew. The animation style, while not groundbreaking, adds a unique texture to the storytelling. It’s the themes of tragedy and urban legend that stick with you—there’s a surprise twist that feels genuinely earned. Quite distinctive, really, in how it combines history with a personal touch.
