War of independence film a fascinating work
The Irish Film Institute and RTÉ are to be congratulated for helping to restore Irish Destiny (€19.95), a fictionalised film set in the War of Independence and launched at the 10th anniversary of the Easter Rising in 1926.
Directed by George Dewhurst and written and produced by Dr Isaac Eppel, it is not just a historic Irish film, but is unusual in that it features newsreel clips from the burning of Cork and the Dublin Customs House.
