Streep's role of the head of this family presents her as a woman who has forgotten the joy in living life; family patterns that go on forever, unless one person has the courage to change them.

Beautiful landscapes of Ireland along with the rustic houses and pastoral scenes. Entire movie filmed in Ireland. I happened to have just seen the stageplay before seeing the movie and so it was great to view the offstage happenings. The movie necessarily moves more slowly than the play (which doesn't move that fast). Meryl Streep is, as usual, wonderful. I am a Protestant but enjoyed the script which most Catholics would probably appreciate, although depressing, as the story is basically a trajedy.

When nothing else in life holds hope or joy, these sisters find overwhelming energy and a life-confirming pulse in dance. The scenery, the story, the brouge, it's all there. What a delightful film.

This movie has the plot that life only gets worse! Nothing got better, there was only one short bright memory in the movie for the narator. What was the point?
