Cinegael Paradiso

at the IFI at 1.30

Bob Quinn (the ultimate rebel)

A terrific occasion and his family were all present. I was very happy to be there. If you are interested, please look at his bio

He was totally rebel. Rejecting anything he deemed inappropriate

The film was a joy and a sold out viewing.

He was a controversial man but didn’t care.

The film was mostly narrated in Irish (Connemara) and opening intro made by his 2 sons.

Thank you IFI. It was a privilege to be there.

And because I was in Dublin, I had heard about the Latvian celebration of 4th May, I spent an enjoyable hour watching their dancing, poetry and general conviviality

Home now and made my pasta/anchovy/celery/cucumber salad

and relax a bit (after all, I was swimming at 7.40am)

Have a nice evening y’all
