So, there's this documentary called Tony Connelly: A Hidden History. It’s not your typical talking-head affair. The atmosphere is quite reflective, almost haunting at times, as Connelly journeys through Ireland, unearthing layers of his grandfather Michael's past with the RIC during such a tumultuous period. The pacing feels organic, often reflective of Connelly's own processing of the revelations he uncovers. There’s a strong sense of personal history and how it intertwines with national identity, which is what makes it compelling. The practical effects are minimal but effective, enhancing the storytelling without overshadowing. It's really more about the narratives, both personal and historical, that emerge from these explorations. Quite thought-provoking, really.
