Prof. Michael Patrick Gillespie speaks on "The Myth of an Irish Cinema"Wednesday, April 8th at 7pm
at Glucksman Ireland House
 Prof. Michael Patrick Gillespie
of Marquette University presents a groundbreaking challenge to the
traditional view of filmmaking, contesting the existence of an Irish
national cinema. Gillespie argues in The Myth of an Irish Cinema
(Syracuse University Press, 2008), that, given the complexity of
contemporary Irish identity, filmmakers can no longer present Irishness
as a monolithic entity.
