A series of essays considering the nature and direction of Irish
film and television. Topics cover the 'Roy Keane' affair, the first
Irish-language soap opera, the New Irish Gangsters, Irish identity
post September eleventh, images of Belfast in contemporary Irish
cinema and female punishment in Irish history and culture. "Keeping
it Real" appeals to those interested in Irish film, media and
cultural studies. It reflects the innovative popular and academic
desire to extend the notion of Irishness to include not only the
inhabitants of the state but also the wider diaspora. Particularly
focusing on the diaspora of Great Britain and North America the
book questions issues of national identity and ethnicity. Films
discussed include "Odd Man Out, The Boxer, Nothing Personal, I Went
Down, Ryan's Daughter" and "Resurrection Man,"
The book also features an interview with actor Stephen Rea
