    Black taxis Belfast good taxis still there today 1.50 from Belfast to Falls road .

    Brendan, Gerald and Tom are former volunteers of the Irish Republican Army. For them, and for all Irish republicans, the time of the armed struggle is now over.

    - But how to live in peace after thirty years of war and sacrificed life?

    - How then rebuild his life that under the company, it remains a criminal?

    - And how to accept that peace does not look like victory?

    Today they are drivers of "Black Taxi"
    Republicans in the ghettos of Belfast.
    Black Taxis are one of the strongest symbols of resistance. They were created at the beginning of the war, when the British government decided to suspend the bus service which served these neighborhoods.

    In Belfast, the buses were driven by Protestants, who refused to risk their lives in these republican areas. The people were so organized, they bought old taxis to make their transit.

    These taxis are still today their privileged transportation, 7/7, from morning to night, plying the same route.

    Riding a Black Taxi is one of the few possible jobs for former prisoners. Moreover,
    this Community transport system was also created in order to give them work.

    These trips represent confinement and lack of horizon of a generation that has spent the first half of his life in war, in combat or in prison.


    Incredible footage of how corporals Wood and Howe mistakenly drove into a republican funeral procession. This incident took place on 19 march 1988, just three days after Michael Stone murdered innocent republicans at Milltown Cemetry. It is not known why the two corporals were there that day, but they clearly should not have been there under any circumstances.

    I love the Green Brigade for their continuity of cultural songs. I love the peace process but I think the history should never be forgotten because that is what happens to so many cultures, they become overwhelmed by the modern ideas and any disruption is regarded as anachronistic hollow past tense. It needs people like these folk in the documentary and the poets who write the songs to make it sensible and give it value the establishment try to take away.

    Not the greatest quality, but it's the only one I could find with English subtitles.
    About one of the biggest MC's in the Netherlands, filmed inside with permission of the club.

    I'll vouch for King of Kong, too.

    Also anything Louis Theroux has done. His Scientology one is good, but not as good as 'Going Clear'. If you're intrigued by Scientology - they're both pretty fascinating.

    Seen Only the Dead by Australian war correspondent Michael Ware in Iraq yesterday. Not particular great, but some interesting bits and very graphic in some parts. (Victims of suicide attacks up close right after the attack as happened/dying twitching guy at the end for 5 minutes was a bit too long imo.)

    (Trailer is quite tame)
