Cinema and Ireland
This was the first comprehensive study of film production in Ireland from the silent period to the present day, and of representations of Ireland and ‘Irishness’ in native, British, and American films. It remains an authority on the topic. The book focuses on Irish history and politics to examine the context and significance of such films as Irish Destiny, The Quiet Man, Ryan’s Daughter, Man of Aran, Cal, The Courier, and The Dead.

"The Cracked Looking Glass" Of Cinema: "James Joyce, John Huston, and the Memory of "The Dead
If, as has been often proclaimed, the twentieth century was pre-eminently the society of the spectacle, the language of modern fiction has been similarly characterized by its address to the eye, whether through graphic realism, cinematic techniques of narration, "spatial form," or other modes of pictorial representation. Not least of the ensuing paradoxes where the relationship between film and literature is concerned is that the more the languag…
In Conversation with Stephen Rea
Luke: Most people will know you through your cinematic persona but you have a considerable pre-history in theater. Maybe you could fill in some of the background, how you found your way onto the stage in the first place in Queen's University in Belfast in the 1960s

Race Against Time: Racial Discourse and Irish History
He was a young Irishman ...he had the silent enduring beauty of a carved ivory negro mask, with his rather full eyes, and the strong queerly-arched brows, the immobile, compressed mouth; that momentary but revealed immobility, an immobility, a timelessness which the Buddha aims at, and which negroes express sometimes without ever aiming at it; something old, old, and acquiescent in the race! Aeons of acquiescence in race destiny, instead of our i…
