"Tis one of the boys."Dublin: 1921. A city at war, with the IRA fighting the British forces for the fate of Ireland. Into this mix comes Irish-American medical student Kerry O'Shea (Don Murray), who tries to stay impartial, but is inexorably drawn into the Irish cause through the influence of firebrand teacher Sean Lenihan (James Cagney).
A fictionalised take on a crucial turning point in Irish history, and one that entertains as it informs.
